I had good luck with Moog on my 04. I know it is different but the I think they are still the same size. If you are going to do them, mark the shims that are in the top of the spindle.

I just did my whole front end. Got half my parts from napa and the rest from ford. I got the high end spicer ball joints and u joints. Tie rod ends, vaccum seals in the knuckle, updated axle seals(seal where axle shaft enters axle tube), and bearing kit for the hub. Its got a serviceable bearing on the back side of the hub. Also got new auto hubs. All parts were a g or so. I get a nice discount at ford though.

I have a parts list and numbers if you need it

You might search but I have Delco Ball Joints on my 96 Impala and they have been good also. Car has been beat on a little bit with some Auto-X and Road Racing with more drag racing though.
They were, at least 4-5 years ago, really strong.
Spicer was good also. it has been a while since I have researched any of them. Which for some reason I think that one of them is no longer made in the same place as they were.
