Anyone used these guys? Thinking about ordering some front end parts for my '54 Ford Ranch Wagon and I'd like to know if anyone has anything good or bad to say about them. Thanks.

They probably just pass on whatever everyone else is using, made in China. send them an email or call them and ask where they are made. Just about anything I've bought offshore, the boots have cracked before I got to drive the car. My ball joints were made in India, I should have sent them back, the studs were too tight, I like to be able to turn the stud so I have best access to the cotter pins. I would consider PST, but would bet where they are made.

Is it like this set up ? https://www.ebay.com/itm/1954-1955-1...EAAOxy~g5Rshb5 Auto City Classic has been around a long time and has had a good customer service reputation but since most of the boots are Chinese rubber in these kits replace them with these: https://www.energysuspensionparts.co...dust-boots.asp You can take the part number to Autozone and they will usually get them overnight out of their warehouse with no shipping charges.
