Mevotech are the bottom of the barrel and Moog are not much better, they are not same quality as they were years ago. Next time go OE, the additional $$ spent is easily recovered in labor and multiple alignments.
Too bad you didn't have an older 6 which was the same as the Fusion, because then you could use Ford/Motorcraft parts at a good price 
The best aftermarket brands to use are Delphi, Suspensia, and CTR.

Was the clunk from a built in BJ or the bushings or ???
Ugh just installed Mevotech arms in a Santa Fe to replace SKP arms that failed after 31k miles.
They have been better than Moog for me lately so keeping my fingers crossed.

What line of Mevotech were they? There are 3 lines?
They’re all the same junk.
Ball joints on the Santa Fe. Loose and banging.
Delphi is made by Disa/Deeza in Turkey, and Suspensia is also made in Turkey and could even be Disa, too.
CTR is Korean and actually an OE supplier. Most of their aftermarket parts are also made in Korea. Even if the OE parts aren't the same as the aftermarket, I'd still trust them over Moog and Mevotech, for example.

Junk is junk junk is as junk does! Good $$$ on the Detroit Axle lower control arms I put on the 01 Grand Prix. 2 years and less than 2,000 miles later ft, end in banging a little again,
Didn't get to look at it yet, sounds like a ball joint though!

You need to get your head out of the sandbox and realize that just because a company supplies parts to OEMs, doesn’t mean they sell the same quality parts to the aftermarket.
I understand that, but the Turkish parts are still better than the Chinese ones.
On what basis?
Are the Chinese not capable of making parts to the same quality? With modern manufacturing practices, I am not convinced that country of origin matters. The issue lies with the intended audience for the product.
sure they can but they perform better than the chinese stuff you get in white boxes or house brand.
“you get what you pay for” is a lie

Yes, a junk parts brand. I have had a few issues with their parts over the last 7-8 months.
RockAuto replaced more refunded, but buying MevoTech isn’t worth the hassle and delay.
