Shopping around for ball joints. Which are better for Chrysler 8.25 Moog or Spicer? Just ordered myself 4” zone lift kit

Dana 30? No ball joints in the rear. Id use dana, they are built to last 100,000s of miles

Dana-Spicer. I'm actually running one of each now, and Moog looks funny. See

Also the grease fitting on the Moog bottom joint is stupid.

There are no ball joints on your rear 8.25 axle.

If you're talking the Dana 30 up front, go Spicer.
