Ball joint replacement. Looking for opinion.
 

Hello I am planing on replacing all 4 of my ball joint on my 04 blazer. They are all bad along with the idler and pitman arm. I want to get an option if buying the suspension kit of 1A auto.com was a good idea for 115$ u get everything ball joints idler pitman tie rods adjustment selves and sway bar linkage. I'm not wanting to drop 250$ on Moog ball joint and idler and Pitman arm. I only put about 12,000 on it a year. They do come with a life time warranty so I was just wanting to get an opinion of what I should do. Also the ones for 115 are not greasable if heard good and bad with that but what would be your opinion. Thanks. Also the 115 ones are not cheep cheep but still are cheaper then most.

I went the cheap route and regret it, I bought full kit for the steering so: pitman arm, idler arm, tie rods and sleeves and ball joints. the ball joints went bad within a year of me driving it as a student so less than 5000 miles a year. within a year the ball joints went bad and ruined the alignment and added significant looseness to the steering. Within two years the tie rods went bad and again messed with the alignment. I would say buy the right parts and only do it once especially with something thats such a pain like ball joints. If you buy bad parts and they wear it wont only ruin those parts but will also make your tires wear poorly and add extra stress to the front end.

That is wayyyy too cheap for how much you're getting for them to be decent quality parts. I can't find any brand listed on their site either for any of the parts they sell. Personally, I think you should find out the brand they are selling and check into those items else where to see what they're selling for, who actually carries them for sale and if there are any online reviews. If it sounds too good to be true........

The nice thing about putting in the cheep ones is that a year later when you're doing the job again is that the bolts are easier to get out.
I recommend quality parts the first time.

thanks for the input everyone I ended up getting all moog balljoints and Duralast idler arm with lifetime warranty. was a pain to get off the lower ball joints but everything is on and done.
