Last week or maybe 2 weeks ago, it does'nt matter, I ordered and got it in yesterday a $219 front suspension rebuild kit for my Coupe from Ecklers. The Ball joints and the tie rod ends were package indivedually with "Made in Taiwan" on the package. Has anyone used this kit?
Thanks.
PS what do you think the longevity of these products are?

Have not used any front end parts from Ecklers---But---my son and I put an "offshore" rear suspension kit on his 69 Camaro. We found the bolts were only hardware grade. So we went and got grade 8 bolts.

We order parts from Ecklers every day and have found that they sell GM replacement parts in tell GM stops making them (At 10 years GM stops making most replacement parts for any car) then they get parts were they can. I have had some problems with C3 window switches and there head light canister seals but for the most all of the overseas part have a good service life, but not even
close to the real thing.

After 10 years or so your pretty much on your own when it comes to buying new replacement parts. One really needs to do their homework or you can end up buying inferior stuff. Me I shake when I hear the word China anything

Not all parts suppliers carry all quality parts, it may be a mixture. You need to shop around not for price but for quality and correctiveness. Business today is very competitive and parts sellers can be very creative when it comes to trying to stay alive.

Some sellers specialize in certain kinds of parts, and these folks would probably be the best to consider at first glance but still look real good and not at the price.
