Ball joints

[dcferguson98]

Hey guy's both ball joints have gone out on my truck (03 GM sierra 1500) and I'm about to replace them soon but should I just buy new ball joints or should I buy one of the kits that has a whole new upper and lower control arm new tie-rod ends and sway bars and just go ahead and replace everything while I'm at it??

If they're all the same age and likely to need replaced in the next year or so I'd be pretty tempted. You'll have most of it apart already.

Do it all or you will be going back into the front end sooner than later.

Agree 100%.

 

Not sure about a "kit," though. There are usually 2 or 3 levels of quality, when it comes to suspension components. Would research what is "actually" in the kit.

+1 on doing it all. I'm a fan of Moog, Napa premium makes some decent parts as well.
