I have a 2006 Hemi 4x4 that I need to get new lower ball joints for. I also planned on lifting it about 3 inches. Do lift kits come with any of these parts already in them? Should I get a diffrent type of ball joint since I plan on lifting it?

Any lift kits you guys recommend that may come with all the ball joints?

Im running Nitto 325/60 20 on spacers

Thanks

If you do a knuckle lift up front, you simply use the stock ball joints. Knuckle kits do not change the geometry of the stock suspension components. It would however be a good time to replace them, since you're already there. I like Napa Chasis Parts or Moog. Once you get into spacers and changing springs, depending on how far you go, you will then start putting your ball joints at weird angles.
