    That's great to hear. Had mine put on about 6 months ago and couldn't be happier. Now I'm just waiting for them to come out with an affordable option to the stock lower control arm like Total Chaos and Dirt King!

    Lowers would be nice especially at the lower price BR is making these. I saw a post where someone used T9 Boeshield on their uniballs so I soaked both of mine overnight before install and so far no squeaks! Super stoked since they made all sorts of noise when I first installed the UCAs. Hopefully it doesn't eat away at the teflon now since I've only seen lubes with teflon recommended, time will tell.

    Also I'll reiterate, if I hadn't accidentally nicked the misalignment spacers my uniballs would probably still be in top notch condition so I would expect others to exceed 6 years by awhile but I've also only driven on salted roads once though I did live in Hawaii the first 3 years with them and the SF bay area the last 2 and a half so I got some salt air.

    Took 2-3 hours to replace the uniballs on each side without a press but most of that time was cleaning up the arms since I'm anal retentive about that stuff. The old misalignment spacers WILL work so as long as yours are still serviceable and smooth. The tapered adapter on the bottom was a tad loose in the new misalignment spacer but the bolt holds everything together so I'm not worried about it.

    Compared to the stock ucas, do these increase clearance for larger tires? I recently moved to 255/85/16 and, at full lock, they rub slightly on the ucas. I would rather not use spacers. Any info would be appreciated.

    I run 285s and have plenty of clearance. I do have 4 in lift spindles though

    Would these be a wise investment for my 16' Tacoma with a 6" lift? I'm looking to go up another 1-1.5" and I will also be buying adjustable coilovers too. Any input is appreciated

    I called the 800 # off their website and went through somebody in sales. I'll try the # listed on the first post. Tried calling and emailing built right and the number is disconnected and no reply for emails.
