I am going to go over the front end of my truck this week and was wondering what upgrades I should make.
I want to replace all ball joints/tie rod ends with ones that are greasable. Anyone know where to get them with zirk fittings?
What steering components should I replace/upgrade?
As far as I know the frame is not cracked at steering box.
Any other advice welcome.

My opinion is to get the thurn or solid steel trackbar and the steering box brace, they are not cheap but by far the best upgrade you can do for the front end. do not replace the balljoints/tierod ends just because you want greaseable ones, replace only whats wore out, Balljoints dont necessarly wear out in pairs. non greaseable joints are just as good as greaseable. the money you would have spent on the BJ you can spend on the improved trackbar and steering brace

I bought the adjustable SSI track bar and brace last friday, and by far it has improved my steering feel even over the DSS (steering box brace) it is one heck of beefy track bar, My track bar woes are gone

Kinda like what mods to make power , there's almost no end .
So limiting to how are you going to use , daily driver , towing , comp.
From what I've seen you could spend easy 2-4 grand , lock out hubs , lift , brake up grade , at some point it may be better to start with a different front axial .
So whats you budget & or long term goals ?
