Default replacing full traction heim joints... help?
anyone have any experience replacing the old full traction heim joints and what joint did you go with? I've never done this before and I could use a little direction as to what you all replaced them with and where I can find such a joint.

I have no experience with the Johnny joint. What is maintenance like with these? Also, are they noisy?

They are the original Joint people try and copy these.

they will require you to maintain them , probably get two years or more out of the bushings.
