Define "better"...what are you looking to do that the TRW part can't? What does "...more adj..." mean as applicable to a ball joint?

...or are we talking in terms of general perception of the part's quality?

There are some A body TRW ball joints that can give you more camber adjustment. Looking for the same results.

It's in the "ads from other sites".

Moog offset control arm kits

It was on ebay, but shows "sold" now.

If the problem is too much negative camber, chances are the upper control arm stands are bent in. See this from BudW on that subject. There's 3 options to fix. I used Option 3 on my Aspen. I found a set of the TSB spacers NOS and after putting them in, camber was back to perfect. There may be other NOS sets out there, OR you can make your own. Yes, the bolts that hold the UCA bracket to the k-frame stand are plenty long.

Alignment problems?
