    Mine go through more torture than standard UCA's since I have there LT kit. 40k miles and still on the same uniballs, changed the bushings after 30k. All is good, and couldn't be happier with any other brand.

    Also all Built Right suspension components come with a Lifetime Warranty on all non-wearable parts. So that is fairly unique when it comes to the off-road community.

    Few months late but I'll jump in. Mine have held up to plenty of abuse since I put them on 5 years ago, no squeaks or anything past the first few months. I just make sure to grease the bushings regularly and use some dry lube with teflon on the uniballs. Haven't hit the coils on my old OME coils or my Icons and alignments are spot on.

    Thanks Matt for chiming in. No issues at all with them. I had the first set and love them. I'm not on as much but I stand by them and the truck shop. Great to work with.

    So far so good on mine! Alignment is so much easier to attain the right numbers, they look great, don't squeak and I'm happy. I have had them for a few months now. Happy customer here!:thumbsup:

    Almost 6 years in and I'm replacing the uniballs, pretty good for an open unit exposed to the elements in my opinion. Greg @ The Truck Shop hooked me up with new top and bottom misalignment spacers and an updated uniball (FK WSSx16T) style for a little over $200. Honestly I could probably keep running them but I noticed some pitting awhile back on the uniball plus I fucked up both top misalignment spacers and don't know how much it's damaged the lining but I'm going to assume that's how I got moisure into the teflon sleeve that caused the pitting. I can take pics when I replace them this week if you guys want.

    Wheelers also sells the uniball itself but I don't know if they have the spacers or not. I'll let you guys know if the previous ones fit the new or not, pretty sure they will.
