in search of some new upper and lower ball joints for my rig, I found some moog's and some alloyusa brand, which brand do you guys recommend? I was told its something I shouldn't skimp on, also if I am doing the ball joints should I also do the tie rods?

 

The one time that I've had to replace mine, I used Duralast from AZ. They worked fine until the Jeep got totaled.

 

MOOG sucks. get dana/spicer reds aka dana spicer HD

 

Get the Dana/spicer's.....

 

I have the alloy USA hd ones. They hold up great with the 35's.

 

THIS!!

Got 'em sale right now too.

 

Serious, how about some HD tie rod ends. Mine are so worn I can pull it around. Price check please

 

What about xrf ball joints. Heard some good things about those. Frank can you carry these?

 

Nope, I do not.

 

I used MOOG when I replaced mine, and haven't had any problems with them. I did the tie-rods at the same time but mine were also worn out.

 

Sure..order a Serious Steering Kit and you get Chevy 1 Ton TRE's.

 

Any better pictures of the lower ball joints grease fitting? What I see looks like a fitting that you use a needle grease tip with. How are you to get to those without taking the axle shaft out?

 

The top of the joint where the needle fitting is, is slanted so you can grease it without taking anything apart.

 

Have you got these? Like them? Worth the price?

Getting a D30 4:10 axle and will put all new stuff in before I install on Miss Moneypit. Starting with ball joints.

 

Yes I have them on my Dana 30, I'm also running 35 inch tires and they have held up great so far. I believe that they are worth the price.
