    I can understand some complaints depending on what they are but defending someone that goes off trail or behind locked gates is just stupid

    Usually there is an Allen head secure spot in top of the link piece to allow you to hold the shank so it doesn't spin. I learned the hard way too

    Does anyone know how Toyota trucks (Tacomas and Tundras), have had payload weights go down, while having towing cap go significantly up. My 2004 taco has a higher payload than my fathers 2014 tundra, and the 2019 tacoma. However my fathers truck blows mine out of the water in terms of towing capabilities and the new taco also has a few thousand pounds higher. What’s happening here because this seems all wrong.

    SPC gets my vote. Adjustable caster FTW. :hattip:

    hit up @Wheeler's Off-Road Inc - they can get you whatever you decide on. Awesome customer service.

    Too many trucks and mods to list.. check builds
    SPC is great for something that sees filth/snow. I have icon uniballs. The design allows a cap over the top to keep shit out from the top. Out of all the uniball designs I would recommend them. But I also got 8 years from my total chaos uppers before I replaced the uniballs. That’s 8 Chicago winters

    SPC have more adjustability with the upper ball joint, the JBA upper ball joint is fixed and can't be adjusted. But most people run the SPCs on the normal setting anyway. But if for whatever reason you need to you can adjust the caster and camber by loosening the top nut and turning the ball joint or pushing it in/out on the SPCs.
