Yeah I tightened them once and within 50 miles they all loosened up again so I’m just saying screw it. How ever at I’m going to have to get black out drunk tonight to spend $90/heim

DAYYUM. I thought $60 a pop was bad.
 
I also had enduro joints. The spanner ring type which fell apart and destroyed themselves and the snap ring type which are impossible to rebuild from my perspective.

Fk jm or jmx heims and be done.

@northwesttaco - @richardlillard1 has the same joints and hates them. I think @Tools R Us has had to fiddle with them a bunch of times now
Yep spanner ring blew out the side on one. Cracked a ball on another... junk
 
This happened last weekend in one of the areas that we wheel around here. From what i've heard the older guy is still in life threatening condition

Right?? Unfortunetly RuffStuff shipped my stuff before I even had a chance to call them this morning so ill probably just run these for now and hope for the best.
Prepare for squeak city
 
About the only thing I’ve found to be worse than the ballistic joints themselves is their s***ty excuse for customer service.

FK is in my future as well.

2+ years and almost 10k miles, mine are still quiet and tight. Hit them with Trick Shot penetrating oil before every wheeling trip, seems to help.

Then again radius arms not only still work for me, but I'm happy with them, so I'm probably wrong.

Some batches are better than others. But having to constantly oil them? No thx
 
... Ballistics only response thus far is to rebuild them all since they've never had this happen before, apparently. ...

:lol: :moon: liar, liar panties on fire!
 
Who's making the bumpers and other armor at Badland right now? When I had my Tacoma bumper made Chris and his father weren't on speaking terms so they had to bring in some other guy to finish my bumper.
 
Fk are the s***. They make rubber sheilds that keep the heim clean, at least for smaller ones. Ive seen guys use that and grease to keep water and dirt out on daily drivers. Otherwise you might get creeks out of them.
 
New seats came a few weeks early! Super comfortable seats for sure, if I did it again i'd get the extended back since im tall but it isn't bad at all.
Going to get harnesses soon though with a half cage, having the sides come up so far makes it a major pain in the ass to buckle the stock seat belt.

Also the planted seat brackets fit perfectly, in case anyone is looking for aftermarket seat brackets for aftermarket seats. My old corbeau brackets didn't line up at all
