Does anyone know if these part numbers will work with the 17 models. I looked on rock auto and the part# seemed different bit only the left upper was listed

 

[Robocop_9]

Yes they will work.

Mine have held up great. I painted mine before the install as well.

Had my Mevotechs on for about 35k with 6" Pro Comp and Coilovers at 8.5". Holding up great so far with zero issues. I did paint mine prior to install. I was going to swap in some new ones just because but I need to find a way to align my truck with my new wheels lol. Damnjt

I went with the ones that end in 1057 and 1058 that Bslugnut recommended. I have a 17 will be installing in a week or so, see how it goes

I am waiting on my parts to come in as well, same combo. Rear bils arrived, wating on fronts, tgc 1" rear spacer, mevotech uca's, and my tires. Should all be here this week and plan to install on Friday or Saturday so I can get the alignment and tires put on at the same time.

Please do yourself a favor and ENSURE that you put the washer on top of the strut rod and BELOW the isolator plate. The nut will go directly on top of the plate with no washer under it.

Just passing along my own hard lesson.

As for my Mevotech's, I have had them on for around 37,000 miles now. Two years total. The passenger side seems to be perfectly fine. My driver side seems to be ok, but when I was working on the struts this weekend, I noticed that grease seemed to be escaping around the inner edge on top of the ball joint. I don't know if it is because I over-greased them with my handheld grease gun, or if it is cracked on top. They aren't being pressed up and out of the UCA's, even with all of the off-road driving I do.

I will freely admit that I miss having permanently lubed ball joints.

So did you go with the Mevotechs, or as your signature suggests, the Zones?

Happy New Year guys. Just curious if the mevotech's have to be greased or not?! And if so how did you guys do it.
