They don't sell stand alone ball joints for 2nd gen trucks, only complete upper and lower arm assemblies.

I just bought the MOOG lowers since my bushings are bad and the LBJs are original. For $230/pair if they even just last a year it's fine. I plan to rebuild my stock LCAs and stick them on the shelf for use down the road. Since I'm using Camburg UCAs with MOOG ball joints I'll just use MOOG LBJs.

FWIW one MOOG LCA was made in China and the other Taiwan. They look the same to me in terms of quality of welds and finish. They don't seem particularly cheap, seem about the same as the OEM parts to me.

One thing that surprised me is the MOOG lower ball joints don't have grease fittings but the upper ball joints I have do. So there may be more than one level of quality or there could be a difference in assembled LCAs and replacement LBJs.

Got the part numbers for them? The ones i found earlier on this page on Amazon said they wont fit.
