Summit ball joints

The Summit ones are made by Federal Mogul/TRW. Believe it or not, FM/TRW also makes a lot of Moog's stuff too. I've pulled many of Moog boxed components out of the box, only to find them with a casting stamp that says "TRW". Go figure.

Thats exactly why i was asking because we all know that summit doesnt have a shop that produce there parts(like those one) and are probably supplied by some big name.
