ok so i need to replace my ball joints and my outer tie rods (possibly my inners also) this is somewhat a 2 part question... truck has 9 inches of total lift with 38.5 tsl on it truck is all over the road i know ball joints and outer rods are bad but some one said replace everything

1- should i replace all componets at once (inner and outer tie rods upper and lower ball joints pittman arm etc) basicly all componets for steering system

2- what brand of replacement parts do you reccomend as far as reliability and longevity oem is expensive(3-4 times more than advane or auto zone)

this is basickly my first big truck i had a 07 tacoma with 33s but didnt have for long so is this something im going to have to do alot or will they be good for a while after i change them

thanks in advance

i would replace what you need to replace. Get something decent from Advance Auto Parts that has some sort of warranty. And actually keep the receipts!

i'd def. go with moog. their joints are strong, and all of them have grease fittings unlike stock! if you get them from a napa store, a lot of them will have a sweet warrenty.

and, steering arm, and pitman arm is the most common thing to wear out fast on a chevy!

Yeah i second MOOG steering components..u can actually get most Chevy MOOG truck parts from Summitracing or NAPA for good prices..
