I've used Standard brand in the past. Pricing? You'll have to call the store. It's definitely cheaper than the poly stuff and for a daily-type vehicle, the parts work fine. Remember that rubber rides more comfortably than poly. I didn't see the need to turn the car into a skid pad test vehicle though some won't accept any less.

Moog rubber stuff is all you need, quality stuff and reasonable.
Many local places can get it quickly but don't always stock it because it's higher quality yet still reasonable.
Gold series or problem solver stuff works great.
Just my .02.

I agree with Salvage. You can't get a better front end part than Moog unless you are ready to spend crazy money for some one off stuff. Their ball joints are what Nascar uses and you don't get any harder use than there. Mark
P.s. don't tighten your control arm nuts down all the way until your car is on the ground. That will set the pretention on the bushings to the right level.
