Balljoints
I need some advice on balljoints. On my last truck I bought the Moog balljoint kit Your Premiere Source for Ford Truck Parts and Accessories Now money is tight and I am curious about these balljoints 4x4 upper lower ball joint kit F250 Super Duty 99 04 : eBay Motors (item 160345723627 end time Feb-25-10 11:38:54 PST)
So my question is, who is running the ebay ones and how do are they holding up?? I did a search but I need a little more.

I ran the mid-grade ball joints which had a lifetime replacement. They lasted about 20k miles. Went to Moogs which are greaseable. I'll find out how they hold up. You should check, my Moogs have a lifetime replacement also.

Are you sure your old Moogs aren't still warrantied? Also something to think about is how do you go about getting them replaced when they do go bad because it is a very common thing to be replaced on the 7.3?

Too be honest, never heard of that brand. Moog and now OEM Motorcraft greaseables would be my choice for about the same price, give Ed a shout, heres his link www.partsguyed.com Also take into account, cheaper isn't always better, especially with ball joints. Million mile warranty, they'll replace them but so will you, in the form of you changing them again or a shop charging you again..

All good points guys. I emailed the guy who is selling them on ebay and asked them about the warranty so we will see. I will probably buy local since if I have a problem I can just take them back into the store instead of mailing them back to someone.

The local driveline shop says to use Moog or Spicer ball joints.
Look into buying your ball joints from a driveline shop. From my experience they smoked the parts stores as far as prices go.
