bolt them on and see. if the bolt will slide thru the a-arm, then thay should work, just make sure there isnt a gap between the end of the balljoint and the a-arm

I don't think they will work, the new style are much bigger.

Plus the new ones have that notch in them that "locks" the balljoint and A-arm together into a single unit, hence the increased strength. If your a-arm doesn't have that notch, then they will not work.
