I took the truck to get aligned and the tech said I had an upper ball joint hammered. I couldn't see the movement, but decided to change both over to the Mevotech TTX as they're supposed to be it. After unboxing, they do appear to be a cut above the typical Moog. Only time will tell.

The grease fitting doesn't thread into tin, that upper cover is pretty beefy. I like the plates with the bolts in them too and the clip is a very nice touch. Did the passenger side first, unbolted whatever was there, cleaned it up, and bolted the new one down.

They even include a cap for the fitting. Onto the driver's side.

Well ****, this side's original and supposedly not even bad. Do I bother grinding or send it as is? Will the replacement even outlast this joint? I'm torn because the Mevotech was made in Communist China and I know damn well this one here was made in 'Murica.
