Camburg Ball Joint UCA's

Hmmmmmmmmmm had a set of Light Racing UCA's before they failed me. Not just at the bushings, but they cracked as well. I'm gonna spend a little more and go Camburg's. I know they have new bushing in the LR UCA's. But I'll pass

 

Good to know about the 82*. I'd be impressed if I could bust one of the SPC arms. They seem pretty beefy.

 

I pm'd yota dan about the possibility of a GB this morning. No response yet. I'll give them a call next week if I don't hear back.

 

About my only concern with the Spc arm is the sliding upper ball going connection

 

I'm thinking as long as it's properly torqued it shouldn't be an issue. I've got mine marked just incase they move.

 

Wheelers is closed Friday, Saturday, and Sunday

 

Well, that explains a lot.

 

Wheelers told me they are already as low as they can go on price. No GB.

 

Did they get any in

 

Didn't say.

 

By the way, I just spoke with Camburg directly. Ask for the TW discount mentioned here https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/new-style-balljoint-upper-control-arms.372770/ and they will knock 10% off bringing the total with dust caps shipped to $585 compared to $599 shipped with caps from wheelers. Hey, 14 bucks is 14 bucks. Now, if you don't want the caps Wheelers would be cheaper because they sell the caps separately where Camburg includes them.

* these prices are based on shipping to middle TN. I assume it will vary depending on your lacation.

 

Not bad but Wheelers is 560.00 shipped with caps when in stock so I'll wait

 

Huh? How'd you manage that? Per their site, $529 for the arms, $39 for the caps=$568 before shipping. What am I missing?

 

I want a set of the original Camburgs with the press in ball joints. I am very anti-Moog products. Anyone seen a place that has a set in stock?

 

Doubt you will find them since they changed the design.

 

I know. I already called around and the only way they get built again is if it a public demand thing... I doubt it will ever happen

 

Is there a problem with the newly designed ball joints

 

I just hate Moog. I used their sway bar end links in my wifes car and even though they warrantied them each time I have had 3 sets ALL come apart. That's 6 sway bar end links completely separate at the ball! Sway bar links are not life threatening or anything if they come apart but ball joint's could be. I will not trust my or my loved one's lives with their products after that! BTW, I went back to OEM links in my wifes car and had NP's

 

I also had great customer service with Camburg (direct).

 

I should have paid more attention to this before I bought mine Nick.
