Big Bad Blue got new upper ball joints tonight
Well my good buddy Mike (MikeT223) and I held a mod day for our offroading club BUT we were the only to attend. No biggy we got my ball joints installed today. Two weeks ago I was showing off jumping my 4runner down at the dunes. Well the ball joints (uppers) didn't hold up to that stress. The boots blew out and were ready to die. Well here are a couple pics.

Its been on my mind but no sure plans to lift my rig another inch & a half. I would then have 8.5 total inches of lift and move up to 37s

Too bad they don't make HD ball joint boots that's usually all that happens to them is the boots fail but at $50 a pop they aren't cheap to replace.
Make sure you get some aisin manual hubs first before you get ball spacers or your CV's will not like you much...

Buying ball joints in pairs is cheaper
