Anyone use this kit? If so, a few questions...

1) Are all parts MOOG?
2) Are all parts painted and/or powder coated?

In some pics I have seen, they are painted (even the Hotchkis site pics), but Hotchkis emailed me and said they are NOT painted or powder coated. So I want to know why the discrepancy, and what in fact ppl are getting that have ordered the kit recently.

Thx.

Bumping this in case anyone has an answer. Pretty much everything suspension related on the front end of my car looks to be crumbling.

Edit - nevermind. Doesn't come with tie rod sleeves and so looks a bit pricey.

yep, i'd just buy all Moog parts from some place like Rockauto.com... good, reliable distributor... and, a lot cheaper!

That's what I did, exactly. It's not cheap but you'll have a tough time finding a better deal on Moog.
