    Hmm, well this isn't what I expected. The driver side came through fine with (555) but not the passenger.

    Do I just try again and hope for the best? Is there a local parts store that sells ACDelco where I can go look an make sure I'm getting the (555) one?

    NAPA actually sells the 555 ones, you can ask them at the counter for 555 Sankei

    Very strange, AC must've ended their contract with 555 and the stocks have run out, those blue booted ones are Mevotech (which likely isn't too bad either)

    They're a graded product like AC delco and most others, they're also listed in the daily driver section as well if you look at the Mevotech Supreme options

    Race truck parts need racetruck maintenance and race truck finances.

    Some part of my OCD just doesn't like the idea of running 555 on one side and Mevotech on the other.

    Shouldn't you be blaring country music and chomping on chewing tobacco then, those should cover all the truck issues right up

    Well, I liked the idea of local because then I could see I was getting the "right" thing at the ACDelco price :) since both the Rock Auto and Amazon ones were Mevotech variant. And I'd hate to buy another online just to find out it's also not 555.

    The Amazon return is no problem of course, but the Rock Auto one is...

    ...and I could go LROR, but $$$. (see comment about @ ACDelco price)

    I had mevotech control arms on my Audi... no issues. Fitment was better than the moog ones I had to send back 3 times. I’m pretty much done with moog on anything foreign. They make great parts for domestic cars. But their foreign shit sucks
