I see JBA has rebuildable joints for their UCA's now. I just found out my upper joints on my JBA UCA's have a little slop so I am going to replace them. Are there any disadvantages going to the JBA joints over Moog's? |

I just got these installed today. Definitely solid units. The freaking original ball joint spacer that came with the JBA arms had corroded itself onto both the ball joint stem and the spindle so that they were basically one solid chunk. Took almost 4 hours of putting the weight of the Jeep on the upper arm with a 2x4 and spraying it with PB blaster before it broke free. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
