Will be available adjustable or non adjustable. The purpose of the lowers being adjustable is so you can adjust caster via the lower arm the way it was from the factory. This leaves the upper arm only adjusting for camber, so you have an even amount of spacers, and a cleaner look from the engine bay. Uppers will be available soon as well. Prices to be determined after testing is complete. I've built two sets so far, one will be going on my truck for some R&D.

Some specs are...
~ .120 wall DOM
~ Screw in ball joints, included
~ Double shear mounts for more strength, versus the common single shear mounts, similar to MII (They have failed on MII kits)
~Literally bolts to the stock bushing, then you weld two tabs to the frame, which will be supplied, laser cut.
~ Frame mount is 11 gauge plate doubled up for thickness, but one half further supports the mount, for a shear load gusset application, to reduce stress on the 'butt weld' area.
~Will come plated and drilled for air bags, but can accommodate coilover mounts. Will not work with torsion bars.
~100% TIG welded.

why did u choose to do screw in ball joints?
twisted minis   +1y
Its the cleanest style ball joint, aside from press ins, which are the wrong taper. Its also an item you can pick up at any local parts store, and most have them in stock.

ya i guess. the only thing is they like to back out slowly so you gotta keep checkin them.

I found that with mine too. Red loctite solved the issue for me.

Steel + Steel + Weather + Red loctite is gonna make changing those out in the future abit problematic, no?

Wouldn't anti-seize and proper torquing be better?
