So what am I looking at here? (youtube clips uploaded)

I will add a x3 on Napa Gold ball joints. Moogs used to be good, but nowandays they are crap imports. If you compare the Napa Golds to the Moogs you will see the difference. They will hold up even with big tires... as long as you grease them periodically

Could this be why my moog "problem solver" idler arm is already bad?
I wasnt aware they went to imported/outsorced parts.

I should add that the bent tie rod was not an intentional thing, happened while wheeling had just happened to provide an improvement in handling, lol
