Synergy BJ or Alloy BJ's

I found a good price for the Alloy BJ $135 vs the $200(-15%) for Synergy.
are they the same quality?

thanks

Aren't they the same? Maybe just rebranded?
Look for a thread on here or on WOL that compares them. Unless your going with Dynatrac they are probably the same or nearly so.

I will note that if you have a synergy joint go bad, they'll send new ones out asap at no cost. I had two lowers go bad and they sent 4 new joints out that day. I don't know anything about Alloy USA service. Sometimes the. Out difference is built in warranty and service cost.

Dynatrac is the only company that paid "his" invoice. Biased data. I've seen pro steers go bad.

If someone needs $600 ball joints on a JK axle, they need larger axles or smaller tires.

I have the alloy Ball joints and they are well made and easy to grease. The needle Zerg fitting is a little tricky but... While I was pressing the BJs in I wasn't paying attention and got one of my lowers twisted and I mares it up pretty bad. Emailed us alloy and the sent me a replacement next day mail. No questions asked. I'm very happy with them.
