When Moog dscontinued the Lower Ball joints, I contacted Jim Bounds as he
knows lot of Key people in the industry.
He hooked me up with a firm that would get them made for me if we go for
500 units.
I agreed and now they are once again available from us and the other GMC
shops.
You guys can support Rock and others, but they are only interested in large
volume and can care less about the GMC MH.
I can receive larger return on my investment by putting them in my Air
Filter business.
