I would love to have either the Thuren's or Carli ball joints. I think they're both quality products. I would also consider the rebuildable ones that Genos sells.
Glad to hear you got your clunk fixed! I think I had a similar issue, didn't get mine torqued enough initially but found it later. My truck still has vague steering. Each thing I am replacing is making it better, but definitely still has some slop. I'm planning on getting Thuren's upper and...
I went with the Borgeson shaft, and it made a marked improvement. Once i got the factory steering shaft out I was able to see and feel a little play in it's u-joints, which I'm sure is magnified by the time it translates into the front end/steering. I painted the Borgeson before I installed...
@Topzide I did do all the Thuren measurements when I installed the trackbar, honestly can't remember if I had them align it to Thuren's specs... but that is important and I can get that taken care of.
@mpaulson that's a good call on checking the steering box bolt torque, pitman arm and steering...

Oops, forgot to mention I did put Bilsteins on it. Belt and pulleys are good,
Cerberusiam, I think you're right about the rear end ratio.
Also forgot I did have the front upper and lower ball joints done, and had the outer u-joints replaced at the same time. Just also re-did sway bar end...
Hey guys,
My '03 is getting up there in miles, 268k, and other than regular oil and filter changes, fuel filter changes, differential and transmission servicing, my truck has never really missed a beat. I have put in new brakes, batteries and I did replace the water...
