Ebay's freedom offroad uca? Updated!

Just stumbled on these uca's from freedom off road while searching through ebay. Design looks the same as camburg ball joints uca but with a little difference with sensor wire bracket. I contacted freedom this morning to inquire about there ball joints and they to be proprietary. Uca's are priced around 290 and ball joints are 35. I might pull the trigger on these tonight. Look at this on eBay Front Upper Control Arms for 2-4" Lift For 2003-09 4Runner 2007-14 FJ FO-T702FU | eBay

Never head of the brand but many of these companies share resources behind the scenes so your suspicion may be right.

I personally went with SPC and I'm very content with them.

It's definitely going to happen. Also I ask where they where manufactured, he replied Taiwan. Not sure if that's better or worse than China

Taiwan is much better than china for manufacturing. AS an example a chinese motorcyle is total garbage, but some taiwanese manufacturers are decent.

You know they are crap when they have the sticker facing the wrong way... Just saying.

All the other aftermarket UCA manufacturers have lifetime structural warranties, I doubt these have a warranty for the bushings and ball joint. That would be a good question to ask before purchasing.

They are Camburg replicas. Yes, they're caster correcting. They come with Tacoma greasable balljoints. No problems with them so far.

Thanks for the response. Do you happen to know how many degrees of caster correction by any chance? Not sure if you did a pre and a post installation alignment to find that info out but thought I'd ask anyway.

I'm not sure of the exact amount. You could message the seller perhaps.
