These J-Flex UCAs join the rest of the J-Flex to allow you to fully upgrade all 8 control arms for a significant improvement to the stock JL control arms both in strength and performance. The arms are constructed from 1.5” OD x .120" DOM tubing and feature robotically welded ends to ensure precision welds and strength. At the axle mounted end OE-durometer premium quality Clevite rubber bushings are preinstalled for great durability, quiet operation and better isolation of road noise and vibrations. At the other end a forged flex joint is threaded in allowing plenty of adjustability for use with with a wide range of lift heights. The forged flex joints use a 1.25”-12 threaded shank along with a jam nut to lock down the length while allowing 30-degrees of misalignment for impressive articulation. Servicing is easy via the grease fitting at the base of the joint.
The adjustable design allows for correctly position the rear axle while correcting pinion angle at a wide range of heights from stock height up to 4.5” of lift and are a direct bolt-in with all Jspec suspension systems for the Jeep JL. These arms come fully assembled right out of the box finished in a gloss black powder coat. Get more out of your Jeep JL with JKS. - Авто та транспорт
That was probably the most informed video on getting a starting point I’ve seen. Thank you
So you didn't answer the question I watched the video to see. Does lengthening the lower control arm increase castor. So if you have too much do you shorten?
Talk about service ... I asked for this video a few minutes ago on the track bar video. Great info and thoroughly explained
Amen, If I could have addressed DW all over again in my WJ I'd have started with the lower arms and installed adjustables adding caster for rolling the differential back. For me that fixed my death wobble from a 2.5 in lift.
How is it I’m just finding these guys , I lifted my truck in 2018 , started researching late 2017 , I have watched I believe every build ,mod video on UA-cam , googled parts ,,company’s I learned about , not only have I never heard
Anyone mention JKS IN THERE VIDEO ,IVE NEVER SEEN THERE PARTS , I have been swapping parts out on my lift to replenish my original ride quality for the last 6 months , then I get recommended to watch this , these guys clearly know what there doing one of the most informative videos I’ve seen , while he talking I’m looking at those endlinks like OMG I HAVE TO HAVE THOSE then I see the control arms smh , how ? Are these parts not on every Jeep, I gotta have them looking for the web site asap..
I just installed a set of J Flex control arms on my Jeep this week! Thanks for the awesome video!
Literally the answers I was looking for. Thank you.
hey dude. great video. I follow you guys on instagram too and you always do a great job of explaining things. thanks!
I love common sense tips like this!
What is the sweet spot angle for pinion and caster? 2017 Jku 6in lift . . I have everything I need but the perfect angle to work from . Thank you in advance.
Great video thank you, very informative
Great video!
Good explanation! I wonder if all alignment shops know how to properly align a lifted jeep or if they just look at factory geometry settings?
It helps to go to an experienced offroad shop when doing these sorts of modifications.
Could I use this instead of wheel spacers for tire clearance at full lock?
Thanks
How bout a 4 inch zone lift? I'm replacing all 4 upper n lower control arms. How much do I add?
I gave my 2016 Jku a 3” lift a few months ago. For the lift, I used just the springs , shocks and sway bar end links. All other parts are stock. I never had any issues with the ride. Recently , my jku was hit on the left front wheel by another veh. I changed the broken parts and had a wheel alignment done. Now I’m feeling my jku wander. Can this be an issue caused by the control arms ? Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Hi. I replaced the lower control arm, and the coil spring, but now the wheel sits outside by 1degree (aproximative 1-2 cm)
I have a Ford Fusion Ju, but parts are the same as Fiesta.
I think i did something wrong, but i cannot figure what.
How can i adjust caster on a control arm ?
