Default anybody have these mevotech UCA's?

my upper bushings are shot and I'm undecided whether I want to deal with installing new bushings or not. Upon research I came across these. I was wondering if anybody has them and if anybody can see any potential issues with running them.

Mevotech is another "foreign" brand that I really never heard of, until their parts started showing up on the Rock Auto parts website. I did a quick search of their name, but all I came up with, IIRC, is they're some sort of marketing company out of Canada....

I'd look at the UMI front upper control arms.
You'll still need to swap, or buy new ball-joints to install on new UCAs.

Honestly I would stay away bro, I cheaped out and bought a set of thier upper strut mounts when I did my shock and spring install. The quality was horrible, when I went to tighten down the two bolts the sleeve started to spin and I had to hold it with a vice grip. not to mention that one fell out and I had to put it back in.
They have been on the car now for a few months with no other issues but If I could do it over again I would have bought MOOG.
