    Yeah I was a bit taken back by that response.... "bushings are used on the CRD model which is much heavier....", ummm, NO.

    I haven't been too impressed with them overall. The lift I got I have had no problems with but the their shocks and now the arms you ordered.

    I wonder if they'll still warranty them when they find out you painted them.

    Painting the metal arms doesnt effect the bushings... so yes they will lol

    Well I'm sure they don't realize the influence that you will have on there sales I guess. Instead of being cocky and blowing you off they should of done some research or asked you some questions at least. And the soccer mom aint going to there site and ordering there parts the guys wheeling like us are ordering there parts so ya bad move on there part.

    It definitely doesn't put their "engineering" team in a good light that's for sure.

    My goal next year is to wheel enough to need the bushings replaced twice in the same year.....lol then im getting a refund

    On the RRO Upper Control Arms, what is the thickness of plate that the ball joint mounting bolts go through?
    Also could anyone with a 2" to 2-1/2" lift post a picture showing us the angle of the ball joint and the angle of the control arm?

    Thanks.

    I found these pics with the arms used with a Superlift 4" lift. My guess from studying the pics, using these arms and a 2 to 2-1/2" lift, the ball joint is probably very close to being straight, is that correct?
