Drag link and track rod

Installed BritPart HD drag link and track rod last week. Then a week later, had front end alignment. What an improvement!! Driving feels sturdier, the shocks feel improved, and for some odd reason, I have more braking power. Now I'm up for new ball joints, and I'll have (almost) a new front end. So....after all this, I might then consider, maybe some new shocks. With a roof rack and new Casey Custom steel bumper, it seems that I am putting more stress on suspension parts. The reason for this post is that I see many members disappointed with purchasing new shocks that maybe HD rods will improve their ride.

He's probably referring to the main upper/lower ball joints associated with the knuckle/spindle. Now that little replacement will surely make the 15-yr old 4x4 ride like it just left the lot. It was night/day difference when I replaced them on my truck, which was never abused a day it's in life. I can't imagine what the original ball joints are like on some of these trucks that have been driven off-road, used to haul, etc.
I have never heard of Casey Customs until now; if the website is a true reflection, then their product must be legit'

Yes. I was referring to knuckle and spindle. The Casey Custom front bumper was $700 btw. I love it. Curious, how much would it cost (ballpark) for a shop to replace both uppers and lowers for the ball joints????? I plan to to plenty of camping this year, and my canvas tent weighs over 125 lbs. That's a lot of weight I'm carrying on my roof rack.
