Did a quick search and saw that Barely legal fab has used them. but i did not see taylor selling them on his website.

So who has these?

do they have more travel then a regular balljoint.

where can i get them.

Are these guys just a "super pivot" from suicide doors or other companies?

They aren't a "Super Pivot". They are pretty much a huge heim you can weld to. In a nutshell.

BLF sells them. Just give them a call. They are under $300 for a DIY kit.

So i was gonna get the 1" with the 3/4 spacers, but the range of motion is 64 degrees, and a factory ball-joint is 32 degrees...... so i get no more articulation? wtf anyone have any imput before i spend 200 for uniballs.

Use a smaller bolt with the uniball. That will give you more articulation.

i got a set from camburg that have a 1" uniball with 5/8"x1" misalignment spacers, and give more travel than stock s10 balljoints.... the barely legal fab guys have those unijoints they call them, and with their fancy misalignment spacers they have, you can get even more travel than standard misalignment spacers....

well i like BLFabs kit, but i just diden't want to pay the extra 100 bones, chris do you know the degrees with 5/8's missalignment spacers?

This all has to do with an LAIM IND. story. I got the uppers and lowers from them. put them on, and thought they were backwards. They moved tires 2 1/4 inches back into the firewall.

So i had to cut them up make new plates out of 3/8's on the end mill, and the way i made the jig for new plates, i must have set the angle to much. So at this point i think i'm gonna put them back on the mill and cut less angle out of plate, so the ball joint sits on less of an angle.

no idea, they were still over 100 bucks each after shipping... ill try to remember to measure at the shop tomorrow.... are these goin on your chevy? my truck gets a ton of lift with the stock balljoints.... lays on 265/35/22 laying rocker and still lifts well above the fender....

well thats why i just need to redo my uppers.

ANYONE WITH A 88-98 FULLSIZE CHEVY LAYING BODY ON 22'S. could you do me a favor, and throw an angle finder on your upper control arm top plate when it's layed out. I think that would help.
