I never said parts produced in India was a bad thing. I said FYI.

Anything except Dorman.

Dorman had a quality issue with control arms. I researched it myself, when I was buying new ones for my altima. I didn't want to spend the money on MOOG, but after I have googled dorman control arm, I came upon few forums that were not happy with the welds on them; however, dorman did replace them for free and the welds seemed better.

Go with Raybestos Professional (McQuay Norris/TRW/Affinia/whatever the [censored] they are calling themselves today).

We had raybestos struts on...and they were okay.

Are these raybestos parts pretty good?

Raybestos has two lines...standard and Pro. Their Pro line of chassis parts is really good...probably the best thing available for many vehicles.

I went with Raybestos Pro for the lower ball joints and upper control arms for my truck. All of the pieces look to be very high quality - better than OE in my case. They have been on for almost 18K miles now and I have no complaints.
