Ball joints
 
Is there anyone out there who knows if the more expensive ball joints are better than the regular ones like moog or just go with the regular ball joints. If you know of better ball joints please lmk

I went back to stock ford BJ's I had moog and didnt like them

i thought you couldnt just buy ball joints. dont you have to get the whole upper control arm too?

Just the uppers are a one piece assembly with the control arm.

I would like to know this also.

Your basic sockets, a pickle fork + hammer, and a ball joint press are what I used.
