I used a allmakes on mine with no issues.

Moog makes good stuff shouldn't be a issue

Have you put many miles on the truck since purchased?
I've only got about 1000 miles on it since I got it.. No vibration issues at all at any speed, 1-85mph range anyway. Just read/heard horror stories of the coupler shredding. Its cheap and IMO one of those "while you are in there things"

Ordered an All-Makes coupler kit and a couple of new ABS sleeve bushings from Trevor at RovahFarm (Land Rover Parts and Accessories from RovahFarm)

And Moog U-joints from my local NAPA.

Flange bolts are in rough condition so I will replace... should I go back with 10mm x 1.25--10.9s or 3/8-24-- grade 8 hardware?
