Im getting my front alxe ujoints replaced under warranty soon and I want to do the ball joints at the same time. I would like greaseable ones if possible OEM is not an option since they where gone at 50,000 mi.

 

just went through the same thing on my 2003 got them from napa upper part # is 260-1580 lower part # is 260-1579 greasable heavy duty. limited lifetime warranty .made by dana/ sricer in napa box.

 

Try the Oreilly brand Moog. They match Auto Zone or any other quote all 4 on my 97 cost less than half of the original retail that oreilly offered

 

Do you remember the cost of each. Thanks

 

Get the Moog's! Be sure you get the adjustable ball joints for the uppers! Just had them installed and the alignment came out dead on! The adjustable upper ball joints allow for camber adjustment, otherwise you don't have any camber adjustment.

Check out rockauto.com

They also have U-joints.

 

the uppers were $95 and the lowers were $91 total for all 4 were with tax was $407.95 ,they listed for almost $600 for the set .the adjustable moog I priced was 148 each.I choose not to go that route I do not have a lift and I run stock tires .

 

Big Bob is always right. ks

Do a search on hear for Moog

Aftermarket Ball Joints
repeatGuys, Thought I'd post the part number for Moog Adjustable Upper Ball Joint for 03-05. Greasable, adjustable, and Moog. Part #K7448. I just replaced all ball joints at 131k miles for the first time. They weren't shot but they were on the way out and I did have a driver side Hub U-Joint gone so figured time to getter done. Could have gotten aftermarket lowers but the originals were still ok so why change when something works. All 4 were about $440. the Front Hubs were still good, not ok, but good...at 131k miles. I guess the moral of the story is don't pressure spray under the truck too much. My Poor truck is lucky if it ever gets washed and has only seen wax twice but the ball joints lasted well. ks
