    Ok. Not familiar with the front suspension setup on your boat.
    Then have you tried take a grease needle to your control arm bushings?

    AHHH knew it would be something!!! Always something with those guys. I know there's liability and all that but they're so by the books at wheel and tire places. I had to run around with my head cut off to go from winter to summer wheels once because no one would install an aftermarket wheel with an aftermarket lug made for that wheel. They wanted to install an aftermarket wheel with a stock lug... anyways, ended up borrowing a truck and leaving my car on jack stands. Now, I have a truck!

    The uppers were recently replaced and amply greased. It was doing this since before I swapped to the LR UCA's

    Probably my lower control arms or lower ball joint.

    I'm gonna swap the lower control arms as soon as I can afford it. The bushings have been bad for a while, and I have frozen alignment bolts.

    Got my switch blanks mounted up where the sunglasses holder used to be. I need to finish it up, but I'm glad with the progress thus far. Not bad for a $13 mod I've had sitting in the to-do pile for months.

    And yes, I'm aware my mirror isn't attached. Had to pop it off to pull down the overhead console

    I thought you'd already replaced the ball joints...
    I remember you complaining about how squeal-y they were.

    Upper ball joints I did replace on the stock arms, and then I went with the LR's with brand new ball joints.

    The lowers will be replaced soonishly

    Absolutely! Keep those for summer, sell your AT20s and recoup some of the cost.

    If I had unlimited funds I'd buy the beadlock rings just to have more spares.

    Yep. Meeting him on Sunday :D

    Mornin'
    WBLM is playing Halloween music today and I was listening on my way in. Now I'm going to have Sam the Sham & the Pharoahs singing Little Red Riding Hood in my head all day.
