Both, but more of an upgrade. Then I’ll install my new tires. Goodyear Wrangler Ultraterrain AT’s. From 245’s to 265’s.

My tie rods look worse than yours but the suspension guy I use said they're fine, and he's well respected in town. I'll still buy new ones eventually.

Honestly; everything you have pictures of aside from the Mevotech tie-rods.
I was planning on doing ProForged everything, but I saw some pretty solid reviews on the Mevotech ball joints
You know, I researched Proforged a chit load and never found any bad reviews. I researched Mevotech, granted there’s much more online reviews, and for the TTX stuff, by far most reviews were really positive, a few dissenter’s. Never saw any negative on Proforged though. That being said, I’m glad I purchased the TTX tie rods. If Mevotech made TTX Idler/Pitman arms I probably would’ve got those.

I like the rubber seals rather than the foam. That idler does look to be forged.

Are those boots on the TTX upper ball joints sealed at the body of the joint? I can see the wire on the stud side. I've always had issues will upper ball joints not holding their grease. The originals were sealed, but nothing I've found from the aftermarket is sealed.

Yes, they seem to be sealed. At least, I can’t seem to peel boot away.

Another thing I confirmed, because I have the Professional AcDelco pitman and idler(I will be selling), I had read in another forum that the castle nut threads onto stud really nice compared to the AcDelco. I can verify this is true, the AC nut feels a little sloppy!
