You missed another conversation of his...he was asking b/c if you were going to replace it, he would need it for testing purposes.

I have replaced the uppers on mine and a few others. I think I have an old one still around.

We have also replaced the lowers on a KJ out here but there were bent very bad. Sorry Wally for bring it up. Hey It was still a fun day right?

The lowers are a very heavy duty piece and they are seeing a lot of force...Just besure you have this tested before you install a new test piece on a KJ. I work with all kinds of test labs if you need help with this.

Again...the lower control arm see some very high loads...

The parts are kind of heavy are you up for the shipping. I thought the uppers were already done by someone. Jeepin Al? Am I all mixed up? later...Clint

Yea I think Al did the uppers. I was just thinking about finding some lowers somewhere and swapping them out.
