Yes but they make some that are quick disconnect so that you can hook them back up once you hit the road.

Here's a list of the parts you'll need /u/RebornSpartan . I did pretty much the same thing last year.

Also, if you replace one wheel bearing I'd suggest knocking out the other one while you're at it. That also gives you the chance to check the axle shaft u-joints while you're at it.

2x Timken HA597449 Axle Bearing and Hub Assembly - $150

You will also need a 36mm socket specific for the nut on the axle shaft. I bought this one from Amazon when I ordered the wheel bearings: TEKTON 4936 1/2-Inch Drive by 36 mm Deep Impact Socket, 6-Point - $14.

Something to be aware of (paranoia at its finest) is the possibility that your hub bolts may be rusted all to hell and need replaced. Or in case you want to replace them "just because". You can get them from Quadratec @ $4/ea and you will need a total of 3 for each side. Crown Automotive 34201535 Front Knuckle To Hub Bolt

Here are the Moog part #s for the ZJ tie rod upgrade:
1x Moog DS1312 ZJ Tie Rod End - $54
1x Moog ES3096L XJ/ZJ Tie Rod End - $26

You can generally re-use the adjusting sleeve that's already on the components you're going to replace, but in case you want/need a new adjusting sleeve it's only an additional $15.
1x Moog ES2079S XJ/ZJ Tie Rod End Adjusting Sleeve - $15

While you're down there mucking about with the steering, you should check the drag link and the track bar as well.

If you need/want to replace the drag link assembly, here are the part #s you'll need. Again, you can generally get away with re-using the adjusting sleeve so that will save you $15 if you do.
1x Moog DS1238 Tie Rod End aka Drag Link - $60
1x Moog ES3096L XJ/ZJ Tie Rod End - $26
1x Moog ES2079S XJ/ZJ Tie Rod End Adjusting Sleeve - $15

For the track bar:
1x Moog DS1235 XJ Track Bar - $59

Now, on to the sway bar links. If the links themselves are still good, all you need to do is replace the bushings.
2x Moog K3150 Sway Bar Link Repair Kit - $17

If your links are crap (usually the top bolt is rusted all to hell, or people don't want to screw with pressing out the old bushings) you can get two of these kits to just do a straight replacement.
2x Moog K3174 Stabilizer Bar Link Kit - $38

And don't forget to replace the mounting bushings for the sway bar while you're at it, also.
1x Moog K3171 Sway Bar Bushing Kit - $10

I don't see sway bars mentioned anywhere. Installing the sway bars on my brothers Slash 4x4 Ultimate made a huge difference in traction rolling. Installing just the fronts will reduce traction rolling considerably.

And that's where the sway bar bushings are. If you look underneath from the back you will see a bar running between the tires. There are two points where it is mounted to the frame with rubber bushings. Those get hard and cause the knocking.

> That doesn't sound bad for dealership costs. Just if you want to give it a try, shocks could be $40 each and take you a couple hours to do it. It's a matter of removing one bolt and a nut, removing the old, replacing with the new. A set of sway bar bushings could run you $15 and takes about an hour to replace. Grab yourself a service manual and your still saving yourself some money.

would these be correct parts?

I just installed the new sway bar end links today. The noise went away for a few hours and then I started to drive on a bumpy road on my way to work and the sound came back. These are the end links that I ended up buying: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KGDNXR2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The bushings are also brand new. I replaced them on the same day. Everything looks fine, no cracks or deterioration.

When I got them they were blue and not black

Is it a stock sway bar? If so it is 23mm and buy there here (unless you want performance ones):
