its funny you ask. I was just comparing advance to amazon. Amazon seems to be half the price. The thing im gonna try is see if advance will match amazon, which they have for me once before with a simple online chat from their site for an in store pickup, so if I have any warranty issues it will be easier to deal with advance than amazon. My list is long though with parts from bj tie rods shocks idler pitman arm bushings...... good luck let us know what u find

In the spring thru fall I plan to do all the suspension parts and steering parts and would like to do a 2" PA body lift too. Already have the lift shackles installed so thats off the list. My truck is just my winter ride so it can can be down for awhile. Hope to get it all done for next winter driving.

if you buy moog ball joints for 2wd be careful for what I've heard the ball joints do not press in to the lower control arms they are too big as they are designed for oversized its what I havr came across not sure

you could check rockauto. i just check amazon and them, and after shipping, rockauto is 2 dollars more, but you should be able to find a discount code on the internet. usually 5% i think. it would come out to like 82 dollars or something. just a thought.
