My truck is stock power-wise. Just seems that every catalog you look at seem to be pushing the new style rod ends. If the ball is oval I guess it would be wise to replace the ends. Otherwise it does not get exposaed to any salt or much water and is greased about every 1000 miles. Then there are the naysayers who claim the old style are dangereous, I suppose without proper lube and maintenance. I can get original style from MOOG but they are pricey compared to the new type.
