Looks like Marlin is going to have a lot of requests for washers!

So my 18" Limited wheels have the lugs with the captive washer, is that the mag seat? Never mind I found it.

most likely yes. Mag seat is actually a shank style.
Lug Nut Seat Type

All Good Now!
I got my 2 washers today and installed them after the kiddos went to bed. Took about 30mins-ish per side but took longer because I had to replace the driverside ABS/speed wire. I also took time to bend open the brackets and adjust the wire so that the brackets could mount using the default hole and I could freely adjust the wire so it would not bend too sharp or be too tight.
So after I installed the 2nd washer it looked better. But after I went for a drive I guess it magically seated itself and looks great!

Nice! Looks like the washers did the trick! Now if only Marlin would text me back...

Shout out to Marlin! He replied who replied to my text early in the morning (apparently this sort of stuff is covered under "Warranty Ball Joint Washers") and shipped the washers out today! I gotta remember 60 ft-lbs for that nut.
This shouldn't change any alignment specs right?

How'd you get the ball joint back out? I took a quick stab today and couldn't get the UCA to lift up to get the threading out of the spindle!

Ah. I rented a pitman arm puller from autozone. I used it on my OEM balljoint and it took quite a bit of effort. The JBAs came off easily, I'm assuming since I had recently installed it.
Did you try whacking it a bunch with a rubber mallet?

I couldn't get the JBAs off at lunch so I put her back together for now.
I tried a mallet and it never popped out. I don't know if I'm not hitting it hard enough or what...it hasn't been very long since install.
