91Pioneer Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 For a 1991 2WD Comanche, are the 2WD & 4WD upper and lower ball joints the same? I'm looking for 2WD part numbers. Looking online it looks like Moog is the best brand, and the following part numbers: Upper: K3134 or K3134T (not sure on the difference between the two?) Lower: K3136T I don't know what the deal is with the T on the end of the part number for the uppers, weird. The local auto parts store carries "Certified" brand with the same part # of K3134T for a few bucks less so I'm wondering if it's re-branded, I'm gonna say "yes". I also found Dana kit (upper & lower together) 706944X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strokermjcomanche Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I can't comment on the ball joints being the same but the"T" means an improved design . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the 2WD and 4WD use the same upper and lower ball joints. The OEM kit (upper and lower) p/n is 83500202. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakewalter Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I've always had good luck with Moog brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91Pioneer Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 Thanks. Cheapest OEM I found was $118, whereas cheapest Dana I found was $51, that's per side, plus shipping & tax. Quite a difference, does anyone know if Dana/Spicer makes the OEM ones? Kinda leaning towards getting them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I picked up two NOS sets of XJ/MJ Mopar ball joints locally last year in the original Chrysler packaging from a Craigslist ad, along with a bunch of other Jeep NOS stuff. I'll open them up tomorrow and see what numbers are stamped on them. I have no idea who the supplier was for these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91Pioneer Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 Thanks. Would you consider selling those or are they part of your personal stash? p.s. It appears that that # changes up to same # with AB suffix: http://www.factorychryslerparts.com/products/BALL-JOINT-KIT-Right-or-Left-Knuckle-SOCKET-PACKAGE-/4432668/83500202AB.html I assume they would be identical parts...

HOrnbrod Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 No, personal stash. Don't need to install yet, but later down the bumpy road. The AB suffix usually designates a supplier change and/or design change; they are interchangeable and backward compatible. Like the front door check; there are at least five different part numbers for it and they all work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
