Me and my dad are tackling all of my ball joints at the start of next month and before i order anything I want to make sure I got the right parts. I am not trying to switch the design on the passenger side I just wantr to replace. Ive been searching but i cant seem to find a straight answer. Can someone let me know if i have the right parts.

Yes those are the correct parts for your truck, assuming your control arm bushings and lower control arms are in good shape. if you haven't already done them, consider adding tie rod ends, sway bar end-links and bushings if needed and the Moog camber/caster adjustment bolt kits to aid in doing the wheel alignment.

I had the shop take a look at everything and they said everything but the ball joints was fine. So im gonna try and save as much money as i can on this one.

Also One more question are these ball joints already greased or do i need to grease them?
 






you'll need to grease them after they're installed. be sure to point the grease relief openings in the boots away from your rotors when you install them.
 












yeah, i've started reading the instructions more often these days. the only thing worse than doing a job is having to do it twice.
