Anyone used Rare-Parts products?

Im planning on a front-end rebuild and want to do it once.
Looking at Moog(thru Carquest)Perfect Circle (DANA thru Autozone) or Rare Parts (direct thru my friends shop)

Im not sure if theres much, or any difference between Moog and DANA (could be mistaken) but never heard of Rare-Parts.

Thanks
Chuck

I know one person who got a custom pitman arm from them and he was pleased.

www.p-s-t.com (http://www.p-s-t.com) and if it was me, I would get the super kit, it is more complete.

Rare Parts is a great source for parts no longer avalible from suppliers like Moog, TRW etc. I saw that Summit is selling Moog parts. I would choose Moog first. I have used parts from other manufactures and like the Moog best. They seem to last longer. The package retailers sell what they can buy the cheepest. Sometimes you get Moog other times you get TRW or.....

I just installed a center link I purchased from Rare parts on my '67 last night. The quality looks great. I was told that Rare Parts bought the tooling from Moog.

I heard that too.
I have done rebuilds using McQuay-Norris parts and they are good quality also.

I recently heard of Rare Parts and people who have used them say they are high quality.
