    They're grade 8. They purdy.


    Camburg was waiting for an order of uniballs so they could build them. After two weeks they still didn't have them. Tried another website and they didn't have them In stock. Cancelled and ordered these lol

    Gotcha. I need a set of UCAs pretty bad. Watching my suspension video showed me both boots up top are cracked and are smacking the springs with just highway driving. Also need rear shocks...


    Yours installed yet?

    TC's and camburgs are the same price, Icon's are $50 more. I ended up having to take the 1" Daystar spacer off the top, too much angle was causing the TC's to hit the coil pretty bad, oh well that gives me more travel and less of a bind on my CV axles. pics for those without ig.

    Yeah the 6" struts to replace le ugly lift spacer got em for about ~$300ish




    Surprisingly the upper balljoints weren't bad, they had easy movement in them but not enough to were they were popping like my lower balljoints. But now I never have to worry about upper balljoints, just gotta lube the uniballs every now and then, Went to my offroad spot and played around :peace:

    Looks great. I think those km2 have finally worn down on you though.
