    Well other companies make aftermarket bags (Meritor, Alliance, AutoMann). As long as they are made for the vehicle they will work fine. Since it is man made it could last longer or less. Never can tell. I have not had any issues with aftermarket bags.

    As long as they're metal and not the plastic base type. Plastic ones tend to leak at the base. Or the base cracks.
