Front End Parts

Need advise. I am fixing to change the ball valves in my 1998 Dodge 2500 4WD and was curious who makes a decent ball valve that will last? I am on a budget so that a problem but something mid-grade and reliable I would like to get. I also will be doing the brakes and changing the bearings since I will have it that far down so any advise on those would be greatly appreciated as well. Thanks.

For 94-99 models Moog is ok, as is Spicer, make sure you get the good grades.

The newer ones, 2000 up the Moogs are not recommended.
