ball joints/tie rods

I am stuck between a rock and a hard spot. I have to replace two upper and two lower ball joints and tie rod ends on the crappy d50. I want to upgrade to a d60 in the future but have not found one and can't get enough down time on the truck to replace it. My question is will any of this be transferable to the d60?

It took me about 4 hours to do the swap.

Floor jack, jack stands, lots of wooden blocking, and air tools.

I did have a complete D60 with steering links and leaf springs. U-bolts I had bought ahead of time.

Its a plug & play affair. Minimal downtime.
