I didn't have a problem with the moog brand I was shipped the wrongs ones. That's not a problem with moog but with the vendor. It's all good now though. Anyways the ball joints... I was reading other people post (other forums also) and there were several people telling me, including certified mechanics I personally know, not to get the moog brand. So I replaced mine with OEM parts. The OEM joint on my truck were near 4 years old and I give them hell so I consider them pretty solid performers. Now don't let that stop you from getting moog, you did search which is great, so if your good, get the moogs and give us a positive report on them. It might change my mind next time I have to press these ball joints out.

That's cool Impact, glad to see your situation is resolved and your happy with the results. I definitely know what it's like to have everything apart just to find out you've been shipped the wrong part. SUCKS!!As for the oem's glad those are working for you as well, though I am still turned off to them but that was just from my experience. I may be in the minority there. And I am not against all oem parts, just the ones that have failed me. As for the Moogs, I know alot of ase certified mechs. that are also friends and they all have said positive things about Moog stuff and I am very satisfied with the ones I have, which is why I did a search on other threads and felt compelled to post back. In the end, what matters most is that you are fixed and happy with your results. Thanks for the reply and keep on posting dude!!

Don't rule out the parking brake being stuck as explained here - https://www.f150online.com/forums/sh...ight=brake+cam . This fixed my intermittent shakes/vibration.

That's right, I forgot about that. I did read where somebody had that problem.
