I'll third MOOG. I put spicer in the 74 and the driver side needs replaced after a few thousand miles. Put MOOG in my 79 with the heavy big block and large tires with zero issues so far.

Just remember guys that all the big brands now have a premium and ecomomy line. Be sure to stay away from the economy lines. Use only the premium line of MOOG, Spicer etc.
