The lower ball joints and the tie rod ends on my 02 are starting to get loose. I have a set of 03 arms on the shelf that have loose bushings and tight joints. So which ones would you rebuild and use? I like the look of the 02's but the lower unsprung weight of the 03's are probably better performance wise.
Would really be getting my monies worth with a full front end rebuild kit from BW are the parts the same for either arm?
I reserve the right to be a tightwad and just use the bushings from the 02's on the 03's and stick them on for now.... as long as the bushings are interchangeable!

Bushings are interchangable. I believe the 03's were the ones that were a bit distorted where joint fits in. Best to get them sized for long balljoint life.
