Re: replacing ball joints
That sounds just about right to me. My guess is about $275 for parts and $200 for labor.

Re: replacing ball joints
wait... dont just get OEM Tierods, what tie rods are you getting???
Remember you got a lifted rig and oversized tires, OEM tierods are junk.

Re: replacing ball joints
Yes, Cognitos, Fabtech, Rareparts...etc... for the money and for the super heavy duty factor I went with RareParts:
http://dmaxstore.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=23_173_137& products_id=227
They're just a tiny bit more than the Fabtechs but WAY stronger and thicker.
Email the owner Mike at miked@dmaxstore.com, he'll ship them to you in 2 days for you.
Check out this video too:
