Default tie rods and ball joints

Hi everyone
i have to replace my lower and upper ball joints and the tie rods.
my VIN is 1D7HU18N76S514220
I would like to use moog parts and have come up with the following

upper ball joints K7460 or K80628 i,m not sure which
lower ball joints k7411

tie rods EV800098 for the inners and MOOG Part # ES80574 for the outers.
the thing is that both look the same (on my car) but i can,t seem to find a actual picture of these parts to compare

I think that the moog es3538 actually looks more like the one i need


anybody experience with these parts

i have attached a photo of what is installed on my car

any help would be greatly apreciated

K7460 and K7411 are for the standard 1500 Rams.

The K80628 is for MegaCab 1500's which have 2500 series frames.

Thanks dirtydog
i believe that outer tie rod has to be the es3538 de moog since this is the one that has inner thread (female)not like the ES80574 which has outer thread(male)
