RK has a new revised triple rate coil that's going in next. I have the currant triple rates in now. Latest shots with RK 2.5's , trimmed flares on 315x75x16 Hankook MT's. Wheels are soon to be discounted Level 8 ZX's. Which pisses me off because I wanted the rock guards. Now forced to upgrade. No way I would go 16's again. Load e tires are very firm.

My stepfather is mechanic on a race team. They run dirt midgets. The owner if the car also owns Seals-it. He makes all kids if seals but his bread and butter .. Heim seals or rod end seals. There's the full body ones and seals that just cover the ball.
He gave me a few to try. http://i1031.photobucket.com/albums/...pspjvradbp.jpg

I don't have them on my jeep yet but do have a older joint sitting outside. Been out for about 2 weeks. Rain .. I tossed some dirt on the joint. Will have to take the seals of and see how well they .... Well seal

Unfortunately I could not use the rod end seals at this time with my CA's. The washer the rubber bonds measures .050 each side increasing the width .100.
I am going to buy 4 new misalignment spacers and machine down .050 off each.

Not sure if you guys in Aus no of Ruff stuff specialties?
Here's their $100 DIY front upper arm kit.
The factory rubber bushings is cut off. DOM tubing slides over the factory arm and welded w/ a threaded bung. Includes a rod end. I have them set stock to not change caster angle.
