    No gussets, no zirks, and cheap looking ball joint. I wouldn't trust it for anything.

    It is gusseted. Both behind the ball joint and the top portion. Its a hard rubber bushing (OEM style) so no grease needed so no need for zerks. Meh ball joint looks like any other typical Asian market ball joint.

    For a mall crawler its probably just fine. For someone who wants to go off roading...I'd spend the money for something else

    Cell phones and 49yo eyes! Lol.
    Still would (and have) spent more for something I can better depend on. Of course, SAS would be very nice!

    So...it's Saturday, I'm on night shifts, I should be sleeping (but I can't), and I may have drunk a little booze to try to encourage the former. What do you all thing about the 'Shock guards' that Rago sells?

    Nice thing about home depot card is 1yr return policy instead of the usual 90days.
