ball joints
 
i just got back from the shop today and they told me i need new ball joints here shortly my truck only has 15700 miles on it and i haven't abused it at all just normal driving :booo: is common on the new trucks or just a bad set of joints or what:argh: and where can i find a good set thats greaseable and really heavy duty. :pca1:

It probably has a lot to do with the 37's your running...Big tires like to eat that kind of thing up.

Carli has some you may be interested in... Also, I hear Dynatrac has a set as well...

Carli's are a little Rediculious, I think when I checked, they only had uppers and they wanted $600 for the pair...

yeah, seems to be a pretty universal opinion that aftermarket parts should be sourced when the crap the factory threw at the newer trucks wears out.

I am unaware of any pricing on these parts, as I am not yet in the market for them.

If the ones I mentioned earlier are out of your price range, simply step down to the Moog joints.

Pretty simple. :U:

ive heard alot of people talkin bout the new trucks,stock, eating the hell out of ball joints and u/v joints...mine has 53k on it and hasnt had any problems yet...knock on wood..if the problem does arise, and im sure it will, ill be investing in some aftermarket joints, that are GREASABLE:U:
