    My Rokmen arms have a similar sealed UBJ, and I'm pretty sure the Camburg tubular arms had the same cap

    Damn! My truck has been airborne multiple times and my LR UCA’s are solid. Good thing to know they have good customer service. Will be putting them on my other taco also.

    Got the new UCA’s today. Having them installed Friday. Would it be smart to get a front end alignment? The new parts are made different, look to be stronger.

    Definitely, alignment gets thrown out of whack when you mess with the UCAs, especially when putting a new/different pair in. Shouldn't be awful but I would be sure to get an alignment done as soon as you can to avoid uneven tire wear.

    Yes since the new arms are adjustable it won't be right at all.

    All fixed! Only cost me $180 labor, now for the alignment.

    I see ZERO grease and tons of rust on those bushings, no wonder why they failed like they did.

    (tho this does make me wanna check my spc arms for cracks!)
