What upper control arms are you running?

I've ran RC upper control arms and they are crap. 30k 2 new ball joints. 10 K and time to replace them again! I know you get what you pay for and all that. Looking to replace with a quality product.
80% highway with a little towing, 20% off road/ ranch roads.

I've been running RC on my suburban for 10 years now and went through 3 sets before my current one which I've had on for 6 years. When this one goes I am only buying kryptonite, they offer lifetime warranty and the ball joints is easily replaceable without removing the control arm from the frame

I don't run any, but if'n I did, I agree with @R467X

Dirt King (went billet since it wasn’t much more). Off-road desert guys in southern CA. Almost went with Baja kits or mazzulla but didn’t want Heims.

They’re all basically the same If going tubular. Comes down to ball joint and bushings. Dirt King uses pro-bearing if I remember correctly.

Buy once, cry once. Especially with stuff that can ruin your day
