    I wonder how long they would last. The plus side of our LBJ's is them being in the boot and some what protected. Here every piece of grit and grime would get into those uniballs. But at least I would assume you would just be able to swap the uniball and that's all.

    Aside the amount of grit and mud. There interesting but since I never heard of these in use and the dude is completely unknown. $400 is a steep amount of money for these, they seem more of a hassel then a improvement

    not a new idea. Guy on tr4.org started doing it too. But he used a MUCH larger uniball. That thing looks pretty small.

    By the pictures and the OEM LBJs I'm guessing .75" Way to small for me to trust it. Hell you can get some ucas with 1.25" uniball. And if my thinking is correct the LCA takes more punishment then the ucas.

    Here's the KC lights. My winch receiver is on a bracket but the bracket is held on by 1 bolt. Be addressing that this weekend.

    20180328_112411_Film1.jpg bed liner sprayed not the best job in the world but $50 and a few hours of my time beats $450 IMO.... Disclaimer if I was to donit over I would save my $ and spend the $450 and have lifetime warranty, however I do feel like this was an improvement.

    But the problem isnt as much the uniball but the bolt running through it, especially since its still just single shear. Dont get me wrong that is pretty awesome, but I would still be just as scared as a ball joint stud breaking, if anything I trust an OEM ball joint more than whatever random company made that bolt. Very interesting idea, I like it, somehow double shear that thing and it would be perfect
