JBA Offroad Upper Control Arms And Suspension MEGA Thread BS thread

That's what I was thinking aswell. Waiting on parts then we will see how it go's. Thanks for the tips any and all helps!

 

Appreciate the information. Did you use sheet metal vice grips for the fender. I’m going to take a look and see if my local hardware has some. It takes so long for things to ship here and am not sure if I want to wait and order them. Thanks again!

 

I used my hand with some work gloves, just pulled really hard and that's all the room I needed.

 

Oh. Great.

 

Just put a set of these on this weekend with a Eibach stage 1 pro lift kit. The bushings where a PIA to get on a pry bar helped a lot

 

Spring rate and lift?

 

Mine is on the 1st clip. Got me 2” of lift. Spring rate I’m not sure.. Best guess 650lbs!! Ride is just a little stiffer than stk No BS

 

Are the black boots supposed to cover the entire bottom when the balljoint moves? I'm selling my pair to a friend and when I move the bolt from the bottom, the black cover does not cover the whole bottom

 

How does this look for JBA HC, my friend did the alignment and said camber adj is maxed out.

 

I plan on lifting truck 1.5” and installing JBA’s high caster UCA’s. Are there any negatives to using JBA without lifting over 2” ?

 

OK so on the 2nd Gen. On the passenger side there is an A/C line in the way when removing the long bolt. For those how have done this on a 2 Gen any tips on how you got around the A/C line? Thanks in advance !

 

I don't remember having to move it, just be careful not to pinch it when bending the sheet metal enough to clear the bolt

 

I don't remember any one mentioning the A/C Line so I thought I would ask. Thanks bud for the reply !

 

Thank you for the follow up, I don't know too much but enough. I'm trying to find a decent shop, went to the dealer today and they lost my keys. I've been waiting here for 5 hours..

 

They don't quite cover the ball at full droop. It was mentioned somewhere in the thread, and maybe even on JBA website, it is normal.

 

Are these compatible with the maxtrac spindles?

 

They are! I'm running them with my maxtracs and ome887s

 

How often do I need to grease them? Just got them installed today, great so far!

Though the shop's alignment guy seems to be dumb... he said the camber bolts were upside down. I said "They spin 360 degrees" but he doesn't speak much English and the other guy wasn't sure what he meant. But still they didn't charge much so I said whatever, have to head to the other alignment place tomorrow. Strange thing that Korean shops charge so little, I guess at the cost of communication haha.

 

Hm, ecery 5,000 miles sound good?
