Hey Guys,
I am starting to get price points for getting my front end on the Cherokee rebuilt; Tie rod ends, ball joints, ZJ Tie rod, Rotors, calipers, new coil springs (rustys), and new shocks. But I'm having some trouble deciding on manufacturer. I don't have 80 bucks to spend on 1 moog ball joint which leads me to, what is the next best thing?
Car Quest quoted me $259 bucks for 4 tie rod ends and all the ball joints, they are made by Raybestos. Advance Auto Quoted 257 bucks for all driveworks stuff (never even heard of them). I won't be bashing my jeep around in moab or extreme cross global trips. But I do not want to do this again in 6 months. Any help?!?
The alignment shop quoted me 70 bucks for an alignment, not bad. And 20 bucks to throw it up on the lift to see what I actually need. At 264,000 miles the jeep has, I haven't replaced any suspension or steering part in the last 100k.
Talk about being overwhelmed. I have heard some people use Rockauto.com for their part sourcing. Where do I start?
