    I think that I will bite the bait with the JBA. They are $100 less than the SPC and right now I need that saving! Does they come filled with grease?

    Lots of sail boat fuel
    Use the lube it came with for the bushings. Best stuff you can use off the bat.


    FYI I also live in New England and don't have rust issues. That's not to take away from @Unchained 5150. He knows his stuff. I'm just saying if you dig around deep enough you'll always find issues.


    I like that they're rugged, paint is holding up great, and I can change the bj on the truck on the fly when the time comes. Like I said, I hammer mine for hundreds of miles and they've worked great. Spring lube, fall lube and fluid film. Good to go

    I hope so! Maybe I could make the truck runs better with higher caster, cross fingers.
