Good advice and honestly the price for a kit with 8 arms isn't as expensive as I thought...I think I'm going with currie or jks

Had some skyjackers that lasted one trip and blew out some bushing.
Then some Teraflex arms that did good, but just didn't care for them.
Only had to replace one bushing in a year, but I was pretty hard on them.
With the MC arms I noticed a better ride and gained a lot more flex. Even with my flex maxed out the MC arms still have more room to flex before the bushing gets maxed out in the control arm mount.

I should have also mentioned that the bushing or control arm end in the JKS arms are not what allows for the articulation like most brands. The arms rotate 360 degrees in the center and it is how you adjust their length too. This is unlike any other design I have found for the JK.

I thought people tested this and they do in fact bind once side load gets heavy on them? And how do they keep the threads tight over time without jam nuts?
