Raybestos Suspension Parts - Quality? Experience?

Just noticed that ECE has Raybestos Suspension Parts for a complete front end rebuild on sale for 10%.

Has anyone used their suspension parts? Comparison to Moog?

According to ECE they started selling their suspension products because they are made in the USA. Just looking for some experience by others.

Thanks guys!

The Raybestos service grade parts I have been getting lately all have made in Taiwan on the box I'm not sure about their professional grade parts.

Just got a bunch of Professional Grade Raybestos brake parts and almost all of it was from China. I was disappointed.

I'm very curious about this as well since I am planning to order about 400 bucks worth of steering components soon, all of which are going to be Moog.
