Seems they're not just another rebrand, they make their own parts. And they're more expensive than just the average el-cheapo brand. They seem to cost about as much as Moog, generally. Are they any good?

If Moog is your benchmark of comparison it doesn't say much about the quality (or lack thereof) for these particular parts. The last set of Moog bushings I purchased for my Lincoln were pure & total junk that lasted all of 2 months in the car. Replaced them (under warranty) with the same result. I then used OEM bushings with good results.

I know nothing of these rare parts you are speaking of. For my Lincoln, OEM parts are becoming rare parts.

Well I wouldn't say I'm using it as a benchmark for their performance/reliability. Just the price range. Same price range as motorcraft and ACdelco.
