duralast ball joints vs moog

I got my parts from XRF yesterday. I opened the boxes to look them over and make sure they were the correct parts. Everything looks correct. They came with a brochure on the quality of their parts as compared to other companies parts. I know some folks on this thread are going to say hogwash to it. But when i get a chance to scan it i will post it to this thread. From what the diesel truck forums are saying, XRF is the way to go. The reciept from mibearings.com said XRF USA on it, nowhere on it did it say mibearings.com it also included the brochureon the company. I can probably assume correctly that i bought them directly from XRF there and not a parts warehouse. As the one i got out of Garland Tx was double the price, probably the markup for them to make a bit of money.

The tie rod ends and lower ball joints do not have a grey raw forged steel look to them. Rather they have a black coating on them over the steel. Probably for lessening surface rust.
