Lower ball joint replacement

I need to replace the lower ball joint on the drivers side and was trying to figure out which to get. I know Moog is highly recommended but was trying to figure out which would be the closest to factory/original. I have a 99 Ford Ranger XLT. 4 Cyl. 2.5L 2WD


heres a link for Advance Auto Parts: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...|GRPCHASAMS___

Any help would be appreciated.

I was planning on Moog. Just confused on which to get to make it close to stock. I I had the passenger side one replaced and dont know what brand they used. Just figured they would use something that was close to the original.
