Autozone sells one as well, they are only 21 bucks and have the same amount of travel as the Moog.

what is the brand for the ones at autozone

moog has a lifetime warranty and mine were only $30 each. well worth it. the only reason i bought them is because i had a DJM break on me right after i got off the interstate. broken balljoints arent anything to play with. i reccommend moog.

if you have the correct angles and dont bind the balljoints you wont break them. its as simple as that.

even the best balljoints made wont stand up to being binded constantly.

the autozone ones are duralast, the autozone store brand. they are made by someone else. not Moog but Moog does make Oreillys store brand "Autodrive"

the problem with most Ranger balljoints is that they dont have the extra travel that the Moog, and Duralast have.

I suggest having the correct balljoint angle to start with. this means that when your truck is layed out the balljoints should be at the end of their travel. that way you have the entire travel of the balljoints to use during lift.

no the DJM balljoints are just about the cheapest balljoints ever made. i know of about 6 people that have bought DJM's and had broken balljoints.
