Ball Joint replacement
im looking to replace all my ball joints. I want to get the moog greasable ones. I went on their website and their are so many to choose from I don't know which part number I truly need. I have a 2003 4.0 level 2 someone please post a link or a part # for both upper arms and lower ball joint. Appreciate it guys!

Re: Ball Joint replacement
K8695T is the lower. You'll need 2.
K8708T and K80068 are the upper control arms. I believe the 80068 is the one piece upper for the passenger side.
K80065 are the upper eccentric bolts for properly adjusting camber and caster. Again, you'll need 2.

I'm going through the same scenario, but I have a 92 Ranger with a Dana 35. I also have another question, will Dana 28 ball joints fit in a Dana 35?

Re: Ball Joint replacement
HEY GUYS!
Question.
I assume every just changes the ball joint on the lower control arm?? and ive seen videos of it done, even though I read in the haynes manual its not possible!
But I just ordered a pair of MOOG lower and upper control arms, but after seeing a video of someone just do the lower ball joint I sent a request to cancel the order.
Since its sunday it better go thru

You must replace the entire arm, they don't come out.
Make sure you get a good quality one with grease able joints. You will hate life if you don't.

Re: Ball Joint replacement
oh yeah I ordered the moog CK part number, with life time warranty, compared to the Moog R part number, 3 year.
Look into that if you haven't.
I just bought both moog lower control arms, maybe I should just keep em, 133 for both sides.
