Never dealt with them. Sometimes prices like that are too good to be true. I would be questioning the 10 Year Warranty. Seems unrealistic.

You will not like the results.

Yeah some sites have them at 1.4 & 1.5 but some have them at 4.1 & 4.9. Seems like “reviews” still kinda leave ya in the middle.

Looks like I can get OEM ones for $95 to my door, or get these from AM. Reviews are similar to what I read on Detroit Axle depending on the site you go to lol. Love saving money but sure don’t wanna do this again for awhile…if ever

Well, that’s what happens with discount parts. They work and fit for some and not for others.
This is what we all run into.

Cool article!!! After reading it I’m more tempted to do the Detroit Axle I guess. Biggest review sites have them at 4.1 & 4.9 stars. Guess based off the article the higher priced & mid priced are just paying $ for piece of mind but no evidence to support the cheaper parts are junk I guess. Still looking around researching.

did just pay for piece of mind on wheel bearings though lol….found OEM ones on carparts.com for $260, sure did wanna only spend $50 though

Bad experience for me with struts. Easy install, but car felt like it was going to fall apart. Switched them out for well known brand and no more issues.

I used one of their kits for front LCAs with ball joints, inner and outer tie rods, sway bar links, and wheel bearings.

I only have about 500 miles on the parts but so far everything seemed decent.
