2018 Tundra Upper Ball Joints

Just wanted to get some input
In the process of replacing upper control arms bushings, but unfortunately the ball joints are not sold separately. Any recommendations for aftermarket ones, or should I go the OEM route and purchase the upper control arms all inclusive
any guidance is much appreciated

 

The OEM control arms are running about $350 per side. If you plan to lift at some point, go aftermarket for better alignment. The SPC's will cost about the same and come with maintenance free ball joints. Removing the arms isn't bad. They are just long bolts that require you to move a few clamps out of the way to get them out.

Thank you for the reply,
I actually not considering to lift the truck, rather keep it stock. Any ball joints brand suggestions?

 

I beleive the stock arms come with the balljoints as a 1 piece assembly.

 

Moog problem solved ball joints are ok.

Most aftermarket arms come complete with everything too.

 

Why do you think the ball joint are bad?

 

Well, I recently replaced lower control arms (OEM), stabilizer links, inner - outer tie rods, front shocks and mounts; wheel hub assemblies., all those parts are OEM, and still getting a vibration between 64- 71 MPH. Trying to do a process of elimination, I know this is a costly route to do, but it seems that more and more that I dig into it, is just all need to be replace. What are your thoughts on this

 

What kind of tires are you running? When were they last balanced?

 

275 / 60 I believe,
done all that,
balancing, re balance
I am on my third set of rims and tires
