Score! okay then I have two of those in the RockAuto shopping cart...my next question is I'm going to get the high angle CV Joint installed but should I replace the LOWER ball joints as well since I will have the front end basically all apart? Are there recommendations for such a part?

The front lowers if it’s the same across years. This is the one for a 2000 but I think it will work across years

Perfect. Thank you, friend. One day ill make a build thread and include all this info. You all have really helped me make some educated moves when doing this huge upgrade
|
And jut like that...Upper/lower ball joints, CV joint boot, and RC 2.5" lift to be delivered to my house next week. Ill update the thread at the next junction...if you wanna keep up with my build im gonna move somewhere into the wheels and tires section to get some good shoes for the truck.

Update: I was able to get the lift installed! But the upper ball joints were too small to fit inside the threads. The mechanic explained it to me as “ it’s too small, it just floats, the threads don’t grab anything.” I don’t know if RC changed the control arm but those ball joints did not fit. Not a problem though. I will be contacting RC to reference through them the ball joints that can fit.
But other than that the truck is amazing now! |
