Questions on ball joints and outer tire rods.

So I had to replace some outer tie rods recently and I bought the best ones I could buy at napa which seem pretty dam good. But now I want to replace the ball joints which I saw those kits from white line and super pro. Would I get the same effect with good quality outer tie rods and pillow ***** as let say to white line or super pro kits?

The aftermarket ones are made for cars that are lowered. Can't comment on the super pro but the GTSpec ones actually have a bend in it to make it within geometry even more than the whiteline one does.

I have the WL RCA on my FXT and I'm very happy with it. Much more precise.

04GG since you are on here. What tires do you run on your foz? About to get a tire change on stock 15s. Also whoever napa used for outer tie rods seem pretty good they kinda look like the whiteline one but they have zerk fittings on them.
