steering parts upgrade.

[Killer223]

My 08 has the older y style steering, i've found https://www.amazon.com/MOOG-DS80098...qid=1506091938&sr=1-1&keywords=MOOG+DS800981A

is that the only thing i need to upgrade to the newer style? i ask because i also see,

https://www.amazon.com/2003-2012-St...rd_wg=UFpiV&psc=1&refRID=567YKCWG568A8CCJB3Q6

and it includes a new pitman arm. what parts do i need? will the first link be a direct swap, then go get alignment?

Thank you.

I just did the upgrade with Moog, everything came with kit already assembled, just had front alignment done today, feels like a new truck , of course I replaced ball joints , axle u joints sway bar links , track bar bushings , hubs and bearings control arms

did yours require the new pitman arm? how about a new steering damper?

I bought new pitman arm but the angle is just a little different, you don't have to change it if you don't have a lift on truck, you do have to change damper to the 09 style
