    nooo way!!!! that means someone pushed it WAAAYYY harder than expected. ive never split a tube at the seam, but ive done some serious damage, so i can understand that this individual must have DESTROYED that truck.

    thats just the bolts breaking... same thing happened to my truck going over a speed bump. it's not the kit failing, just the bolts. in my case they were OEM.

    IIRC aaron had the same thing happen to him... it's pretty common. bolts come loose and people dont check their shit as often as they should.

    a bushing tube blowing out is a different story all together...

    @matt the bolts were still intact. It was the Uniball that popped out.

    I count it as a fail because anything can happen to any kit. So not every brand is bullet proof.

    Got any pics? I haven't seen the TC kit in person in awhile, but if it's anything like the Camburg kit, it's possible to install the uniball assembly upside down. When that's done, the weight of the vehicle is supported by a C-clip rather than a strong welded metal ring. Doesn't take much to break that clip...
