Anyone know how these bj's back out of the a arm. There was a small weld that I ground down but I am having a heck of a time pressing them out. They don't screw in do they?

LOL, I think you are the first to replace the bj's on a set of these. Good to know they are threaded in.

I probably am the first, I was going to get the new gen but $400 compared to $25 is a no brainer for me.

I replaced mine when I had them went to Moab wheeled them hard then came home to be hit and forced to upgrade. But yes they screw in and out be careful when threading them back in it is a rather fine thread. And JBA suggest using raybesto ball joints and not moogs in his UCAs.

got the UBJ from JBA and they were Moog, I couldn't remember. Threaded in nicely with a little lock tite. I also cleaned up and resprayed the arm while I was at it, came out nice.
Will do the other side when I get some time.
