Disco 2 ball joints - AB vs LR brand?

[innanetmatt]

Does anyone have experience with the Atlantic British brand ball joints for a Disco 2? I need to replace all 4. Land Rover parts are roughly 2x the price of the AB brand. If anyone has long-term experience w/ the AB, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I do not but............if I was doing anything other than LR OEM, I would put MOOG in. I ran them in every vehicle I've owned before my LR3 and if I was going to do them on my LR3 they would be MOOG but I did complete control arms last time due to bushings of course.

Napa, or Amazon and worth every penny in my opinion for all of their stuff.

I've never heard of that brand. I used Meyle HD lowers and Meyle standard for everything else on the lr3 2 years ago. It's kind of a pain to really test if something is holding up super solid vs knowing easily when it's getting loose or way past it's prime. I will look into the MOOG.

@Jwestpro they do not have anything for the LR3 and up as far as I know but for older vehicles they have always been awesome products IMO.

Maybe they added lr3 stuff since you looked before. I found this last night ?

Nice, well I'll be buying there now for my non-GenLR parts; I've always had good luck with MOOG and always satisfied so I'll be stocking up as I still need to handle the rear suspension this year.
