Ball joint sources

[JVas]

I got my upper ball joints (Moog adjustable & lubeable) from RockAuto. Anyone know of a source for lubeable lowers?

Not yet! Still waiting for Moog to come around.

Ryan are you also having problems with ball joints now. I have been checking mine at every oil change at 5K intervals, so far they have been good.

No, not yet. Mine were checked by the dealer at 36k and they said "they're fine". I have not noted any abnormal tire wear, but have not actually checked the joints myself.



But I plan to buy the Moog joints when they're available, along with new front hubs. Then when it comes time for replacement I'll buy the quad4x4 tool kit and replace them myself. I assume I will destroy the hub bearings during the process.



Add this to my likely need for 4 new brake calipers, and I've got my cash tied up for quite some time in accumulating spare parts. Of course, none of that would be necessary if Dodge cared at all about RUST.
