    ...too much shit to list.
    You are the only person who had a problem, and it was just that one time. I think you just had the belt positioned on your stomach instead of your lap.

    isn't that better performance wise?

    I'm pretty sure Camburg's race kit comes with heims instead of bushings

    I think MJP has them on his truck IIRC

    Awesome! What's the benefits to that? So the old school burg kit had heims then or is that part after market?

    Any idea on how much sdhq would charge to convery the ucas to uniballs to ditch the ball joints?

    If you're going to pay for "converting" BJ's to uniballs you might be better off just getting a whole new UCA made. Maybe look into adding a striker on the UCA as well for a hydro bump that you could mount off the engine cage.

    Also, the heim/uniballs on the LCA allow for a better range of motion (horizontally) for better alignment (that's my understanding of it anyways). IIRC they are a stock part, as someone on TTORA asked about replacing them, Check out their (Camburg) website I'm sure there is some info on them.

    Well if its cheap enough why would you make whole new ucas?

    And is the only benefit to going uniballs travel? Since I'm 4wd ill need to limit it anyways... I'm sure they are stronger too.

    Obviously if it's cheap enough, go for it (see edit above too).

    Well with a uniball all the strength is off of the bolt of the uniball. Uniballs also allow for more mis-alignment.

    Okay thanks, sdhq said they would have to make whole new arms to do that, like over a grand. Yeahh right.

    mckenzies and/or kartek has them in stock . PP's markup on things is ridiculous and they never have half the shit in stock. with all the problems ive had with the past couple of orders, im not using them again.

    Figured as much, since it's not really as simple as cutting out the BJ & welding in a Uniball Cup.

    actually.... it technically could be. it just depends on the jig your using. a grand for some uppers is some bullshit. i woulda laughed the dudes ear off over the phone. sounds to me like sdhq is on their way to being another overpriced one stop bro shop.
