    I know that the recommendation is to get HD arms if you're going to be running gussetted spindles, but is this actually a requirement?

    I'm asking because I think I may have a bent spindle so I'll probably be swapping them, and will probably go ahead and gusset them while I'm in there tooling around. I don't really want to buy a whole new set of uppers though, when my STD arms are working fine. I can't see a reason it would be a requirement, just more of a 'well, if you're gussetting the spindles you must pound on your truck so go ahead and get HD uppers too!' type suggestion. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    That sounds like decent logic to me. Again, though, I would defer to JBA. I am sure these guys aren't going to steer anyone from this forum wrong, or anyone for that matter.

    A bunch a cool stickers, a bada ass MetalMiller Tx Longhorns grill emblem painted Hemi Orange, JBA long tube headers with o2 sims, Diff breather mod, Red LED interior lights, Fancy head unit that plays ipod n movies, Also DIY install factory stuff like, factory cruise control, factory intermittent wipers, OME nitro struts with 886x springs and toy tec top plate, JBA high caster UCA's for better alignmnet and dey beefier too, Old Man Emu Dakar leaf springs in da rear with the gear, U bolt flipper, Ivan Stewart TRD rims with 33" K Bro 2's, some bad ass weather tech floor liners so I don't muck up my interior, an ATO shackle flipper for mo travel in da rear wit the gear, also super shiny Fox 2.0 shocks back there too, all sorts of steal armor for bouncing off of the rocks like demello sliders, AP front skid, trans skid, n transfer skid, demello gas tank skid, and a tough as nails ARB bumper with warn 8k winch, I'm sure there's more
    Those are the ball joint washers, I think you're in need of the control arm washers. The thin washers that are in the package with the control arms go between the control arms and frame. The factory washers yoy pulled off with your factory control arms go in the same spot as they were with the factory control arms, on the ends, between the bolt/nut and control arms.

    I guess 45ft lbs is the right torque for the ball joint .
