@Drwinlied Here is a picture of the parts list I was building and the part numbers for the MOOG pieces I used. I have a feeling some people used MOOG economy line and were disappointed with the results. These part numbers are for their premium line. Tie rods are missing from this list but I used their MOOG CK line for tie rods.

Moog are one of the few I’d run no questions asked. I just wrapped up an entire front end rebuild/ refresh (upper/lower control arms, ball joints, tie rods, end links, bushings, front/rear sway bar upgrade to Eibach and including front and rear Z55 struts and shocks. I used oem for most parts but moog inner/outer tie rods. I’ve not once been let down by anything moog I purchased or had replaced.

Those are the same arms I went with as well. I did oem inner/outer tie rods and rolled the dice on the mevotech TX series end links. Not that my lowered tahoe sees much trail action haha.

If they suck I'll just throw a whole new sway bar kit up there because I apparently like fixing things that aren't broke. Well, the front bushing are cooked everywhere but new hard parts for 700$ or nearly 550$ for just all new poly bushings.

Thanks again for your input.

Moog CK Series is ACDelco Professional, at least it was a year or so ago when Chris bought his parts. @iamdub

Correct. I would prefer AC Delco OE. But, with the limited mileage I put on mine, even parts that should last only half as long as OE would get me by for a long time. Besides, I got my arms for $39 and $23. They're plenty good enough at those prices!

Found my post. It was almost three years ago!

Interestingly, I took a look under my '07 over the weekend, and noticed that one of my lower ball joints is starting to tear. They are Moog and I replaced them in 2018. Can't remember if they were C or R line though.
