I think Vertex rebuilds them and replaces the monoball end with a urethane bushing. There is a thread somewhere that describes why (in that writer's opinion) it is a downgrade, because (I am trying to recall what the thread said) the urethane bushing allows some fore/aft compression which allows caster and toe changes under hard driving, where the monoball constrains the fore/aft motion due to the nature of the monoball style of joint. It made sense to me.

I don't know of anybody that rebuilds the OEM track arma and replaces the monoball end with another monoball.
