That's a fairly decent write-up. I'll use it when the time comes and I can afford the better quality B Js.
Thanks Blazer4949

The Dynatrac set is $600.00, A set of OEM are $85.00 from Wycoff, Crowns are a little cheaper. The bj tools are anywhere from $100-400.00 bucks if you get the good kit.

Not to many Ball Joints to choose from.

I love how my post about another companies ball joints has been removed from this thread I remember how the Nazi's that run this site say the never delete posts and all that bullshit but they sure do.

Anyways there is a great option out there from the company P.o.l.y P.e.r.f.o.m.a.n.c.e that FAGOFLIFE does not want you to know about becuase they refuse to pay him

I am seeing Moog units that are machined that allow adjustment of camber and caster.
http://www.moogproblemsolver.com/sec...pAdjBJ-Eng.pdf

1. anyone use these units? They say they are machined housings.

2. They say the are adjustable after installation. Anyone try these?

3 How do you know ahead of time if you need to change caster/camber. If the old ones are shot, how can you trust the numbers?

thanks

homer
