I would go with MOOG's standard ball joints. From what I can tell, suspension shops like them better & only use the TRW if customers are trying to save money.

I bought all MOOG front end parts from Orielly's because they have a lifetime warranty and all the positive feedback on this forum.

I use MOOG on everything under my truck. Bushings, TREs, Ball Joints.....

Also my ball joints have grease zerks, which is a plus.
