    I’m in the market. Was thinking JBA or SPC. Still unsure what I’ll go with. Nice to know these are an option, they don’t look bad.

    Up until today, I’ve heard nothing but good things, but you’re the second person to say that.

    I’ve heard they loosen up over time, or quality isn’t there. I can’t speak from any experience, just what I’ve heard today.

    They aren’t even shipping just yet but the Toytec guys seem to be pretty good so it’ll be interesting to get some reviews and feedback on these. I’ve had set of their coilovers for some time now and have been happy!

    i had ball joints and x-axis bushings fail in about a year with little off-road abuse. I worked for an Spc dealer and we used their suggested grease in our grease guns. A little search on here will come up with a lot of the same. Many users have no issues but there were quite a few with both ball joint and X-axis having play.

    Good to know. I may just stick with the JBA’s. I’ve heard pretty solid things.

    I’m not running stock UCA’s as is, and after my alignment Monday I’ll know for sure if I need new ones, but something a bit better built will suffice.

    The toytec arms may we worth running
    Factory bushings and ball joints
    Eliminates the issues I had with SPC on the FJ. It ate their odd balljoints and bushings

    . JBAs on my truck. 90k on the original bushings and ball joint absolutely zero play in them. Just order the new bushing and ball joints to do a refresh but overall I highly recommend them.
