You shouldn't be disappointed. One of the best if not the best joints. Also the Johnny joints are on both ends. I have their front uppers.

Default ride

I don't know anyone who doesn't want more flex.

what am I losing by swapping in some very expensive arms?

I like the ride of my JK (3" lift on stock control arms) and Foxx Shox

I want more flex, but my last TJ on long arms was quite rough on the highway...

off road it was perfection. on road... not quite ideal.

my JK rides so much better I don't want to wreck it...

From everything I'm reading, these bolt in replacement arms should improve the ride on and off road. At least that's what I'm understanding from Metal Cloak. I've read that the true long arms, where you have to re weld in the brackets back in place may screw up your ride. Give me three weeks and I'll update y'all.

I would love them today since I'm working the suspension this Monday again. But the $1300.00 is slowing me down... Layaway plan???
