Which MOOG LCA?

[FordMan77]

Getting tired of the clunking in the front end and after 290K I'm sure the LCA's need to be done as I'm not sure if the prev. owner ever replaced them. I did a ball joint on the pass side a while ago but that's it.

Want Moog LCA's, but why the huge price difference on RockAuto between the 2 "Problem Solver" LCA's? One is $79.79/side and the other is $97.79. Per the description on RA they both appear to be the same. Anyone have any knowledge on the 2 they care to share before I drop the coin?

I think the one of them is for buicks because they use softer bushings. That's why there cheaper. Dormans are the same way.
