im replacing my idler and pi9tman arms so here is my question. which parts do i get, the ac delco or the moog? i can get the ac delco at a little bit of a price break but which is going to be better for a car that will be driven hard? the rest of the steering stuff like ball joints and inner/outer tie rods have all been replaced with delco parts and these are the 2 pieces i have not replaced.

 

where are you shopping for your parts? moog is a pretty decent non oem replacement part company. i personally have never goten a bad or poor quality part from them.

 

ive never had parts from eather of them..i usually get them from mazdatrix that way i never question the quality of the part..

:AA:

 

I have the Moog idler arm and I'm happy with it.

 

If the Moog idler arm is the one with the brass/bronze bushing, buy it.

 

I like moog ...good stuff

Moog units look of more quality.

 

thx for the help guys. i really appreciate it. i think i will go with the moog on thsi car and the delco on the other and compare them =D

 

Definitely go with the Moog. It's much more heavy duty, and uses a ball joint rather than bushings. Get it through Rockauto, because the specialty shops (like Mazdatrix or Racing Beat) are charging a lot more for it, calling it a "race" part.
