Arrow 2013 JKU Sport Suspension bits compatibility

Curious why some sites (like Amazon) that ask to specify a vehicle to check compatibility of parts provide contradictory information.

For example... I'm looking to replace what look to be the original ball joints on my 2013 JKU with 119k miles with Spicer 2007354. Researched various 4x4 web sites that claim this is the correct part # for my truck, yet Amazon says it's not. Who to believe?

I already replaced a badly worn U-joint with a Spicer 5-7166X that Amazon said would fit, but it took some grinding to slide it in there... is this the case where some modification is required to make it work? or what? Similarly bought the Mopar 10 year 150k coolant for both my 2013 Jeep and 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan, Amazon claimed that it's right for the Jeep but not for the Dodge even though everywhere else it says that Chrysler switched to this coolant across the board in 2013.

So can anyone confirm that Spicer 2007354 will be direct replacement ball joint for my Jeep?

Summit racing list that as the right ball joint for your jeep. $62.99 from them.

I never trust Amazon's fitment tool. I go by the part number verified elsewhere before searching for the best place to purchase from.
