Stopped by the Carli shop today.They pulled out a mystery box and told me to open it up and check it out.A bit hesitant,since I have seen a few practical jokes in my day I cautiously opened the box...............There they were the new ball joints.................all surrounded in the cut out foam packaging,surrounded in class and complete with a tube of Redline synthetic grease.Nice job guys!They were working out the install instructions written in limens terms.The miller tool part#s were included so the die guys can spec the correct tools to get er done.The grease ports and slots were impressive,the added o-ring will allow a water tight seal.The pin itself is removable for inspection.All the things that a $50k truck should have been built with.Awesome job.The end to upper ball joint issues!

Has anybody used these? Everyone says Moog or maybe NAPA, but are these even better? If you gotta re-do, might as well do it right.

If they are rebuildable they are better.

The Carli ball joints have replacable pins,but I have never seen one wear yet :beer

I guess the question is, "How much?"

OK Bob, next question. How Much? and I presume they will work on any 2500 or 3500 2x4 or 4x4 or are there limits

i believe they are like 550 a set. ive seen them at Carli and they are much more robust than the stock ones. They also have some type of perminant lubricating coating baked into the metal. after seeing them first hand next to the stock ones i'm almost ready to pull the trigger on the upgrade even though my stock ones dont need replacement yet. I just like knowing that i'll never have to worry about them again.

4x4 only............
