Upper ball joints can be had for $43 or less at RovahFarm. If you plan on a lift in the future you may as well just do it now.

That may be $60 I'd gladly part with to make that job pain free!

Good call on the seats. What else will get one of these beasts to a smoother ride? Getting towed on a mercedes flat bed?

Bushings
Shocks
Suspension
?ball joint

What have I missed?

If I did not have a press then I would definitely buy it already done at that price , I was not trying to be for or against any one supplier they are pretty much all good guys, I just know a few $ can make a big difference sometimes if money is tight

I have to find a press when I need one. I doubt I'll be in a hurry to do my ball joint after the latest round of work.
