Ya I'm really bad about doing everything myself but I figured this one was worth having someone else take care of

If you don't want to mess with them ever again you can pick up the Dynatrac Prosteer Ball Joints... they are spendy. But rebuildable without having to press them out of the knuckle!!

really ball joints isn't too hard of a project to do yourself...

The hardest part was pressing on the seals on the inner shaft that runs into the axle... You got to make some sort of tool to press it in with. It took us a while tapping around that thing to get it started... LOL

lol just what I don't feel like dealing with right now. The truck is used for plowing and the new joints need to be replaced ASAP before we get more snow. I'm sure i'll have to do ball joints again on some other truck in better weather and i'll look into those ones you mentioned. As for now i went with Moog.
