Steer Kit Moog or XRF

I am going to replace my steering linkage to see if it helps my steering issue. I have seen good comments on here about the XRF kit but I normally use Moog. The XRF kit through Ebay is $300. I used a diagram I found on here showing the Moog part numbers and Rock Auto has these parts including shipping for $313. The price is almost the same. Would I be good with either one of these? Rock Auto would probaly get to me first.

XRF or Spicer are the only ones I prefer to choose between for suspension and steering parts. Sometimes I need to deviate from that because time is not on my side.

Sous is steering you (see what I did there) in the right direction. Moog quality just isn’t what it was. They are still living off their name but as the failures mount up it is just a matter of time before people will abandon ship. Sad but true. They seem to still make some things quality but it is very hit or miss.

I have had great luck with my XRF components. I cannot comment on others due to no personal experience.

I think the xrf kit on eBay was from Canada. If that one ends up being too much shipping here's one for $319 https://dkdiesel.com/i-30511639-xrf-...rsion-4x4.html
I just ordered this one and the quality seems great but I have yet to install it
