Options for ball joint and tie rod for 85 gs
 
Got an 85 gs here and I have been in the process of replacing the front struts. While in the process I realize my ball joints and tie rod is shot. I found this brand at rockauto called mevotech. Has anyone had fitment issues with this vehicle on these items? I know when having to deal with the suspension on my supra that's the same year there were only certain brands that fit on certain parts, some would be too small some too big and if I order something online I want to know that it will be the correct part. And I can order both ball joint and tie rod for passenger side for $40 shipped compared to the $53 oreilly wants for just a ball joint.

I was going to order from Rock Auto -
but I found Amazon cheaper than RA & free shipping (taking forever).

I ordered ACDelco inner & outer tie rods & adjusters. X2

Just saying check Amazon also.

Mevotech - I'm sure they're fine but I'd stick w/ a known name for a little more (Moog, Reybestos,ACDelco).

Okay thanks. I actually just found some on amazon that was $5 cheaper with free 2 day shipping
