I was browsing the JBA site today, found something interesting in the pictures of the gen 4.5 arms. It looks like they're using a ball joint with a longer stud and a spacer between the knuckle and the boot. The pics show it with what looks like the adjust-a-strut suspension they sell. Anyone know anything more about this? I just fired off an email asking for more info/a part number. This would be nice for reducing the UCA angle and getting the balljoint farther away from the spring if you're running a taller lift.

Check it out

Different style ball joint they used for a while, I've seen a couple of these that had the ring but recent ones don't
In reality not that much difference I had spring contact with them and the later models
