    Speaking of UCA's, I need to get a set. My summer wheels have 4 1/4" backspace, but the winter stock steel wheels are around 4 3/4". My next set of tires are going to be 255/85R16's. Anyone have or seen pizza cutters on stock steel wheels with JBA's without spacers? Otherwise it'll be LRs...

    I’ve looked at them also in case mine crap out. Where’d you get them from? JBA?

    I like the simplicity of the JBA's. However, they have a warning that they will not clear 33" tires on wheels with more than 4 1/2" (I believe) backspace.

    My knee has been acting up lately and I've been wearing a knee brace.
    Went trout fishing this morning and it was a royal PIA kneeling down and netting/unhooking fish.

    Good Morning America :oldglory:
    And our friends in Canada :canada:

    This is the reason if I need UCA'S I would get JBA, the simplicity, and a common and easy to find ball joint.

    I have no idea what's going on outside, been at work since 5.
    I told wife we should go see a movie this afternoon, if we went tonight I would just fall asleep.
    Everyone have a nice day. :thumbsup:

    Almost there Mike

    Looks like spring is already giving way to summer here. Temps are rising and the A.C. is sitting in my back yard, that will be one of the last things to get replaced. I keep asking the contractor how long this will take, he shrugs his shoulders.

    They have to.
    Committing to a time frame is a sure sign of a failure coming. Lol

    It'll either show he knows nothing about timelines or it triggers impending doom. For a 1 day job I allow 2. For a 3 day job I allow a week...never a disappointment.
