The Houser's are just built better. The tubing Houser uses is probably larger in diameter, and the balljoints are bigger. Burgard uses bushings for the frame mounts, Houser uses needle bearings. For the weekend warrior that isn't real hard on equipment, Burgard is a nice upgrade over stock. But you get what you pay for.

And you better hope nothing ever goes wrong with your Burgard products. Their customer service is the worst on the planet. There are many Burgard horror stories on the net. Just do a little searching.

If those are your only 2 choices, Houser hands down.

Oh, and Burgard uses cheap ball joints that you have to ream your spindles for.

yeah you get what you pay for. Ive never had experience with burgard arms but i have their steering stems. My stock stem was stronger than the burgard. I do however have experience with houser a-arms. 3 sets of them and could never tear them up

We have sold a lot of the Houser a-arms over the years and have always been happy with them.
