Press in, or bolt in Lower Ball Joints?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am about to buy one of those polygraphite front end kits for my truck, good excuse to take a week off of work! But anyway, I see that there are 2 options for lower ball joints, press in and bolt in. Its been a while since I've been under my truck to look, but I'm pretty sure the original LBJ's are press in, so does that mean I have to buy press in replacements? Or can I buy the bolt in replacements? I know how to do the work, just don't know which ones to get

Thanks.
