i am wanting to replace the upper A-arms w/a set from Jeep'n Al's. i installed Frankenlift in May '06 and Moog LBJ's a week later when the OEM joints failed.

Question: Now that i've had the MOOG's on for awhile will there be a problem putting Al's upper A's on? Will i have to replace the LBJ's again if i now put Al's upper A's on?

Anyone out there w/thoughts or experience w/this one let me know. i always appreciate the advice given here! :wink:

I'd don't see any reason why you would need to change the lowers...assuming you've been greasing them regularly (that has nothing to do with replacing the uppers though).

There will bo no problams with the lowers. Just remember to have it alligned.

I was just going to post up some praise for Al. I have been thrue three right ball joints and 2 left :( In the 45,000 miles I have had the little silver goat. But since I put the awesome Al's upper controll arms I swear the ride is even better... Dig in Mp jeeper youll love em.

As long as you have maintained the lower MOOG joints, the the only thing you will need to do when you install my a-arms is get a wheel alignment.
