FJ Upper Control Arm replacements - recommendations?

Hi,

I have a 2007 FJ with a Rev Tek spacer set up in front and OME springs in the rear.

When putting the lift in, my buddy left some small tears in the ball joint rubber coverings and although they do not make noise and it still rides great, it does lose grease, so I am going to swap in new control arms.

It is a street driven, daily driver rig, occasionally on the beach. I am thinking about the tubular assemblies from Summit.

Anyone use these? I am a single dad, so am on a tight budget.

Thanks, Tim

I am running the Total Chaos ones on my FJ Cruiser.
I have pics in my buildup thread.

They helped it to track straighter after my OME lift was installed.

I forget, but you can order directly from them.
They may have been around $600.

that is not bad, but the summit ones are $430 delivered, so likely will go that route, they are also bolt ins, have more caster built in/correction for lifts etc...

anyone running the $430 ones from summit?
