ball joints

I have a upper ball joint with about a 1/16th inch of play. I was going to use XRF joints but I understand the are non greaseable so i probly wont use them.

Has anybody had any expericence with the carli units good or bad i would like to know.

I was also thinking about a spin free kit but they are pricey is there another alterntive.

Thanks

If you're going to do the free spin, the time to do it is when you do the ball joints. If you are going to keep the truck a long time it will be worth it, otherwise just do the ball joints.
