Ball Joints on a budget

Ball Joints on a budget
Hey guys I have been creepin on here trying to find a somewhat recent account on ball joint brands. I had to replace me steering linkages earlier this week because the outer tie rod fell out on the free way. That was a fun ride. Anywho I checked my ball joints while i had it jacked up and notice that i have a little play in my passenger side upper. Truck has 92K on it with a level kit and 35in tires so I'm really not surprised. What I am trying to decide is if I should replace with Moog, Napa, or XRF joints. I was thinking about just doing the one side with Carli's to spread the cost out a little bit but they only sell them with either 2 uppers, 2 lowers or all four. I don't have the money to spend $800 at the same time. I read a lot of threads on here about XRF joints but I never found anyone that said they were working good after 75 or 100k miles. I also read on here that some people done like MOOG for 2500's. I am pretty sure that napa uses master ride which is basically OEM. What are your thoughts and experiences?
Again I know this is probably the 100th ball joint thread but the only ones i could find were older and didn't have any follow up after some time.
