uniball question?

does the uniball use a standard bolt? do you drill the spindle hole out and use a straight bolt?

Yes it uses a standard bolt. Depending on the size of your mis-alignment spacers will dictate how much you have to drill our spindle out. Good luck, what is it going on?

toyota spindle...

3/4 inch bolts are perfect

so if i am correct, you have the uniball with a bearing in a sleeve similair to a heim joint, then its installed into a weld on sleeve with washers and c-clips? then you use misalignment spacers kinda like you would use cone washers on heim joints to achieve the greater pivot? and then a 3/4" straight hole is drilled where the upper balljoint mounted and the uniball is attached on top of the spindle with the bolt?

were do you get them and how do you install them?

Chris,they sell them at the local wal-mart

exactly cris. depending on the spindle mid point in travel determines the uniball levelness in relation to the frame. uniball give usually 32 degrees of movement. so longer arms are the key to tremendous travel. same length arms as stock will pose no real change in travel. they sell them through WWW.KARTEK.COM average price is about 110.00 each Parts Included:

1" Uniball w/ Teflon Liner Weld-on Uniball Cup Heavy Duty Snap Ring 1" to 3/4" Hi-Misalignment Spacers

ah..... so 32 degrees from center is about the average travel? no real advantage over most balljoints other than the strength i guess.... thanks for the info though.

and the word uniball is much cooler than balljoint..
