Rockauto Parts

[Deet27]

Hi all need to replace both Front Lower Ball joints on my 03 Lexus GS300 and will be ordering from Rockauto which i have done plenty of times before(Denso Parts etc). I live in the UK and am unsure of which Make/Manufacture of suspension parts are good. Prices are for the pair delivered to the UK.

 

Ultra-Power £32/$42 (Warehouse clearout)
Daily Driver
Mevotech £57/$75
Beck/Arnley £60/$79
Acdelco £74/$97
Premium
MAS £56/$74
Moog £60/$79

 

Obviously I would like to buy the cheapest but dont know which ones to avoid, confused on why the Premiums are cheaper than the daily driver. Any advise would be appreciated.Many thanks

Good question, I also find the range of suppliers offered by Rockauto bewildering.

So it'd be useful if someone had a guide/rule of thumb.

I've never ordering anything from them yet either, so would be good to get to grips with it before I place an order.

Update: just found this on their website; http://www.rockauto.com/help/?page=2#WHATDIFF, so they group products into Economy, Premium, etc. Looking at each parts Info screen I can see warranty levels, so that's an additional help. Seems like I just need to get familiar with their website...
