Default Ball joints

Hi there I was wondering where the best place I could order upper and lower ball joints for my truck from. I went to a local auto parts store and they were pretty expensive. Also they asked me how heavy my front axle was to determine the right ball joints. I drive a 1993 ford F250 turbo diesel 4x4 XL extended cab long box. Any ideas?

if you have the twin Beam front end , you have the ( 4600# front end ..)

If you have a straight axle it will be the Dana 60 ( 4800 # front end ..)

Got mine from Car quest , was relitivly easy with the rented press kit ( of coures I do this for a living so , I suggerst getting a ball joint press - there in at a terrible angle so a normal press aint worth a Chit !!!)

Keep us posted
