I need to rebuild the front end on my 2005 ram 2500 4x4. What is the best parts brand to use? I see so many variations suggested that I want to do it right the first time.

What all do you need to replace? I've had good luck with Moog.

I went with Spicer u joints and Synergy ball joints, control arms, sway bar, links and tie ends, excellent quality but at an American price.
Moog USED to be good until they left the country, now moog is just more Chineseium garbage.

So it sounds like I'm going to have to do the front end on my rig, 07 3500 4x4, before I was hoping to have to...

I agree with the Spicer U-joints, try and get the solid ones if you can, greaseable is convenient but they are weaker.

What so yall think about Carli products? Ball joints, links, etc? I've heard the synergy is pretty good stuff too... but I've never dealt with either company or their products...

Thanks,
Matt

I just put in AC Delco U-joints they are grease-able. Then EMF ball joints, Timken wheel bearings, upgraded factory track bar to poly bushings. Synergy T-style steering.
