glad you changed the UCA, that first version looked horrendous. I'm not entirely sold on the box at the end for the ball joint, but if it doesn't break on you, and it gets the job done for you, then more power to ya.

What ever came of the bushing for the upper control arms? did you find something better/stronger? Or did you at least gusset it?

the lower ball joint mount on the LCA looks like the weak point to me.. i would think that it would want to shear off right there.

how is normal driving with you kit? in my head it seems it would ride smoother since its 4 in wider thus making the suspension to cycle less over the same bump.....
