    Ha, nope. Grease and go for now. I just got new lca and Tre so it’s all getting swapped out in a couple weeks.

    I’m running these newer Dirt Kings with about a 2” lift. Quality, fit and finish is top notch. I don’t remember my exact alignment number but they added several degrees of caster (think I was in the mid 5 degree range). My cam bolts are in a more neutral adjustment vs pretty much maxed out with oem arms. Steering feel very much improved, firm center, sharp response.

    How is the maintenance on the OME? I'm very new to this so I'm not sure how that would be I've only seen JBA mention you have to grease them every 3-5k miles. OME seems like a great price point but I wouldn't want to get them and mess them up because of improper maintenance

    Had SPC and they only last 12k miles before the the bushings started rattling...terrible product. Went with JBA and so far they're great I hope they last. I grease them every 1k give it a pump or two. 20241005_130612.jpg

    What UCAs give you the same alignment flexibility as SPC? The reason I went with SPC was mainly to get the ability to accommodate larger tires. So far - 6 months and 15K miles and quite a bit of going off road no problems.

    How often do you recommend greasing the OMEs? I don't even know if I'm doing it right but I tried to grease mine after my last oil change and I don't know if any grease got through the grease fitting because it just spilled out from the grease gun all over the fitting. I didn't try again after that in case the UCAs still had plenty of grease in there because I didn't want to risk rupturing the boot. How many pumps should I give it if I were to grease the UCAs? It's hard to find anything on these OMEs and there's basically zero info on them online.
