Default Changing Balljoints

I have a dumb question about what balljoints to get ( I am going with Moog )
I just don't know what axle rating I have because it seems there are several options and I don't know what I have other than a 1992 D250 5.9L Cummins Club Cab.There is 3000#,3300# and 4000 lb axles. Any help would be appreciated greatly. I bought 4000 lb ones and I was told they won't work.
Part# Moog K7053T.Lower Balljoint
Thanks John

Thanks, I am going everything Moog but maybe going with the poly control arm bushings and sway bar bushings, trying to find out if there is any downside with the Energy Suspension bushings over the Moog bushings. I am probably going overboard but I am replacing every moving part in my front end. So I can have piece of mind and do it once.Amazon.com actually has some good prices on these parts.

Energy Suspension is the way to go. I have their whole front end on the 69 and i cant complain. obviously its not a 4 thousand pound front end but Id imagine the quality is the same. Ive heard Moog has gone downhill recently, from a few people.
