My 02 lc100 has all stock suspension, but it is starting to s*** out at 250k on the dash. I want to replace the upper control arms with the ball joints, the lower ball joints, and a lot of other suspension things. For now, what would be the best UCA with ball joints and LBJ for the 100 series?

If you're keeping things generally stock height, OEM is best for all of it.
If you're going for a lift, it gets murkier, with there being as many opinions as buttholes.
OEM will always be best for the ball joints with Sankei 555 ball joints (from a trusted source)
being second best. But even there, some folks disagree.
A good rule of thumb is: If Cruiser Outfitters (Cruiser TEQ) sells it, it's a reliable offering.

Best is the OEM. It's a Landcruiser and want to keep it as a land cruiser then stick with OEM. There is a reason why you bought a Landcruiser.. my 2 cents!
I second everything he said. If it lasted 250k it should last another.
