I'm trying to get my schedule figured with some clients and other appt.s I am consumed tomorrow with some Safety related projects for a proposal. My time is running thin!

WRT the injectors I was talking the tip end of the injector, my bad.

 

Ya I know how that is and I can't get the ball joints until friday or later and thats the main thing I need help with other than that I think I got it covered and since you have done ball joints recently it would be awesome if you could spare some time and what ball joints do you use spicer or moog?

 

I've always used MOOG. R&R is just hard work, not much mental challenge really. Again, I will see what I can do for the weekend at least for a few hours.

 

So you've never had a single problem with moog? and that would be awesome! even for a hour or two

 

Moog ball joints and lifted trucks don't mix. All my Moog stuff wore out in 20,000kms with my 6" lift and 37" tires (twice). I went to XRF and haven't had a single issue, just my $.02....

 

On my 89, I replaced them every year for about 3 years, but it was warranty from MOOG. At the time, the 89 was a hybrid with some 1 ton front end parts and some 3/4 parts so the ball joints were not being designed properly. On my 93 I replaced them once and thats it. Both were 2WD. On my 97, I just did the first set at 350,000 km.

I think having larger rubber is a killer on any ball joint, especially as 3rd gen dodges are soft with OEM parts. Increased un-sprung weight and changes in offset will wear them out faster on any truck.

 

Sent you a PM DJTurbo.. Tomorrow is my free day. Give a call!

 

Thanks again guys for all the info without you I might survive but I'd prob end up making way more mistakes than needed lol and I have heard good things about moog and bad things so I really dunno but I think I'll go with the spicers
