Default Upgrade front end parts.

Hello I got a 98 Durango and I am running 33/12.50's and I am about to rebuild my front end. Its needed to be done before I put 33's on it so the new bigger tires don't help the worn out front end. I am going to be replacing ball joints tie rods brushing ext. and I don't wanna put Shi**y aftermarket parts back on so what parts have you guys found the best. I'm going to get hard urathane brushing but idk were to go from there.

thanks Jordan!

the best/favorite suspension parts are moog brand parts, and the bigger tires will accelerate the wear on the suspension parts

I was told not to run the poly up front. The front end will wear out eventualy and the rubber will hold up the front while the poly will break apart leaving a huge gap in the a-arms. Not good if in the middle of no where. To each his own. I run poly on the street truck though. Moog it and it will be fine.

Polyurethane is a lot better then the OEM rubber. Never heard or seen it "brake apart".

You can get the kits from their retailers (look at their site) or even look on ebay.
