    What's up gents, so I had my billy 5100's installed by SOCAL suspension last monday (installed by eric for 150 including alignment, thanks to this forum I got a good deal) and it's rides like a true champion; sure it's no 2.5 C/O 600lb spring combo but it sure does ride nicer! After that I went to my loca stealership on thursday and got my TSB leafpack put on. Now it rides even better but still not up to my standards... so today I went back to SoCal suspension and talked w/ eric who suggested the billy 5125's in the back and Camburgs new Ball Joint upper control arm for $410. Now, before you all gasp and starting asking me 'why not TC UCA Ben! What the hell were you thinking not going w/ the uniball arms!'
    1: it's quite a bit cheaper and since I'm not loaded this seemed like a nice alternative.
    2: it was suggested by a guy that knows his stuff...
    3: I'm thinking my Toyota balljoints should hold up pretty good. I do a fair amount of off roading and will definitely pound my new shocks and UCA.
    My real question is, what is the real difference between a uni-ball vs balljoint. You guys really think i'm gonna destroy my balljoints terribly w/ these arms? One thing is for sure, camburg does not make junk and I don't believe I bought a piece of trash so I'm pretty excited to get these installed on tuesday w/ the rear 5125's.
    [​IMG]The pic we are all familiar w/ and the ones I bought. I'm really hoping these will hold up for the money I spent.

    My truck BEFORE TSB w/ 2.5 bilsteins, I love the nose high! haha definitely a so cal prerunner way. This was taken 20min after I got it at parkway plaza mall in el cajon. hahah, no it's not a mall crawler... the pics following prove it!
