    Pretty sure LR BJs allow more movement and adjustability.

    Maybe you only need uniballs for extended travel? Maybe I'm full o' shit. Not sure.

    Mostly correct I believe.

    False. When ordering my kings from DSM I was told the LR ball joint UCAs will not support the extended travel mod in the fronts. Wishing I had gone TC or Camburg... live and learn...

    I ordered some BP-51's. They are adjustable though.

    Doesn't your linkage determine how much travel you get in the end?

    My buddy has BP-51s on his 4Runner. He has less than 20k miles on them and they need to be rebuilt, granted he drives like an ass. They do great on washboard if you air down, and they kill it on fast off-roading.

    I had OME on my last Tacoma in the rear. Dakar stack and OME shocks. Sway Aways up front. I just remember the OMEs being really stiff so wash boards were tough. Bigger hrs they were fine.

    Looks like I'm going to give King a go this time around. Just wondering if I'll be able to get a set of Nitto 285 ridge grapplers on without a ton of trimming? Anyone run these?
