So they are My emergency trail paIr. The A1 Cardones Are good quality. The boots are the same material as the OEM And clamped on the same way. Smooth as a cloud. You can buy ten sets for the price of one OEM set. Not a hard job really.

Got it back after three days in a 4x4 Performance Shop. The squeaks are gone, they greased the UCA/LCA Bushings as they said they looked perfect when removed.
As for the Phantom Popping? The adjusted the Struts to spec, however they couldn't get it to 'Pop' when the Skid Plates were off, but when they were reinstalled, it made the popping sound. Something about the vehicle flexing just enough that it can create that sound.
The wobbling at 50 - 55 was fixed with "Bead Balancing." Never heard of it before, but they removed the old wheel-weights and as a result, I'm satisfied, the wobbling comes back a little bit at first, but it smooths out within 100 feet.
Maybe the Phantom Popping will go away when I redo the Suspension... Or trade it in on an actual 6th Gen... Or maybe its actually a tie-rod failing and everyone else is dumb-dumb-bubble-gum...
Who knows.
