    TRD Baja Kit with JBA UCA's 1/2 inch spacer on top, Medium Dakars with BAMF hangars and super bumps all around. 285/75/16 Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT's on graphite TRD faux beadlock wheels. Pro skid powder coated black with Pelfreybilt aluminum mid skid and aluminum gas tank skid.
    Question for you guys. I got my standard JBA's just before he started coating the ball joints about a year ago. They s
    Didn't see too much of winter until recently and not the ball joints are rusting a little. My question is should I care about the rust affecting them and order new ones or just go on loving them with their patina?

    He will replace them for free, you just have to buy the new version and install them. Then send him back the rusty version and he will give you the money back

    I unfortunately sold mine already and they are coming off in the Spring to put on these on. He address the rusty ball joint stuff quick but I also had a lot of red powdercoating coming off and they were only a year old. My only complaint on that is after many emails I never got a response on the issue. Got a slamming deal on the ICON Delta Joint UCA's with caps so I am going to try them. Hopefully this LCA thing takes off would be nice to probably not have to pay the over inflated price of the others that make them plus hopefully a ball joint version.

    Noice my Delta Joint UCA's will be put on in the Spring with front and rear Kings Extended Travel, and new OEM LCA's with Whiteline Bushings and all new alignment cams. Pretty much a new front end.

    Rustoleum Professional Red is a perfect color match.

    @Blackout14

    Will he even replace the new versions? I got them replaced a few months ago. Haven’t ever seen salted roads yet. I posted a while back saying it doesn’t look like this new coated will hold up but I wasn’t expecting to be this bad at this point. 3k miles in.

    As you can see for some reason the red was coming off, taped it off and repainted them.

    I emailed and talked to him on the phone when I reordered them for the new coating. So I was sent the old version of the Vall joint. Smfh.

    Well crap....I must have missed that in this thread.

    Well I guess I’ll change them out after this winter season.

    Thanks for the help!
