Yet another 08 steering upgrade question..

Guys
I am getting ready to purchase the upgrade, the handling of mine seems to be needing a little pick me up.. and my tie rod ends are shot.

In my research on here for part numbers and where to buy the kit, i have found a few things that are stumping me... part numbers, where to buy and which kit to buy (greaseable or non greaseable?)

First i have found three different places to buy, all have different part numbers... what gives? which should i buy?

factorymoparparts.com has the kit ending in AF
moparsupercenter has the kit ending in AG
dieselperformanceproducts has the kit ending in AH

all three kits are different prices as well... AF being the cheapest and AH most expensive...

also i have heard of the same steering upgrade coming with greaseable ends? not mopar brand...

which should i go with? Please help

I followed the consensus here and got mine from super. Much improved and I cant beleive I did not do this earlier. I also did my ball joints and steering box stabilzer at the same time, and the results were extremely noticable.

The kits you listed are more than likely almost identical....the suffixes are probably superceded part numbers. I got mine from mopar super center because at the time, I got it shipped to my door for less than $400. Non-greasable but I've had zero issues with it for going on 2 years. I think SourceAutomotive sells the greasable version but it's probably quite a bit higher.

It's a stock drop on the arm, you won't have any issues with it. I too have a 2" leveling kit and everything worked out perfectly.
