Hi all. I need help deciding on which ball joints to get. My Jeep is mostly for commuting and I plan on doing some moderate off roading, nothing too crazy and hauling my dirt bikes around. Which should I get?

Teraflex does have a lifetime warranty, but $260+ tax is a pretty penny. The moogs are $25 pop but I don't think they're axel specific. Are the Teraflex worth the extra $150?
 
Stick with the Spicer 706944x ball joints the factory installed, they're not gimmick joints and they hold up very well. Teraflex's are WAY overpriced without strength benefits over the Spicers. Moogs are not as durable as better quality ball joints like Spicer's. You need two sets of these... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007N6OHI0/?tag=wranglerorg-20

The only thing that will cause premature failure of the Spicers is by installing 37" or larger tires which are too big for either front axle (Dana 30/Dana 44) the TJ ever came with.
