The "best" would be Dynatrac or Metalcloak. The brands you mentioned may be affordable to you, but would not be my choice.

The JL seems to be particularly hard on balljoints.​

Sounds like you should trade it for a Toyota.

I replaced mine with Dynatracs at 50k miles. Made a night and day difference. Also replaced the aluminum knuckles at the same time.

Mine have surprisingly lasted 85k miles without issue - though they're probably outliers.
That said, I already have plans to replace them with Metalcloaks in the next month or two, as I know they simply can't last that much longer...

On our 2021 JLURD I replaced our ball joints at about 40k miles with dynatrac ball joints and also installed cast iron knuckles. Couldn't be happier. The stock ball joints still felt tight but after removing them I could easily move them around with my hand. My stock ball joints had about 35k miles on them lifted on 37's with a decent amount of off roading involved.

I did Cavfab tierod/drag link + dynatrac ball joints at the same time so I can't attest to just those being changed - however I had ~65k miles on my stock stuff at the time with plenty of wheeling and the feel is a night/day difference.

Metacloak and Dynatrac Ball Joints are rebuildable.
