Ebay says 1 of these has sold.... Wonder if the guinea pig is on this forum....
Shipping was basically overnight since it shipped yesterday. Looks like they have a distribution center down the freeway from me.
I just ordered some spindles and thought I should get these quick because they are in Long Beach and I am in Huntington Beach, just down PCH. Well looking at tracking information, sure does look like they decided on the scenic route to get down the street a stones throw away. LOL!:bash:

Hell yeah, I'm excited for you. I'm really curious about these and will probably get them if you find they're worth it!I wasn't the one who bought the first one, but I did pull the trigger Monday. Package gets delivered today. Shipping was basically overnight since it shipped yesterday. Looks like they have a distribution center down the freeway from me. Signature required so hopefully someone is home when they come. I'll try to get some pictures up after work.
i dont know if anyone has seen but frontrange has recently released a full set of links and tracbar for ~600. probably what ill put on my dads. but if some one really wants to spend less these ebay ones should probably work out decently. hell i just swapped my LR UCAs for the ebay uniballs with no complaints.
heres the front range set 4Runner Link Set (4th Gen, Rear) - Front Range Off-Road Fabrication
I definitely thought about those ones, and if I was rock crawling or jumping dunes, I think the heavier duty of these or metal tech would be better.
well thats exactly what i do with my metaltechs. my lower metaltech links are pretty broken in. i might pick up the front range tracbar and upper links cause im lazy and dont want to get the welder out
I haven't gotten to the point in my 4wd career that I'm crawling over rocks and using my rear arms for sliders yet. I'm looking forward to see how beefy they actually are compared to stock though for those incidents where I do hit them on something.
be a decent test of them. see if they fold or not
First impressions. These things are solid and heavy. Welds look good, bushings look good, joints look good. My guess, is that these are blemished pieces without stickers. Every single piece has paint runs or some scrapes on them. That might bother some people, but I don't care, they'll be covered in dirt soon enough. I don't think anything is going to snap or fold if I land on a rock.
edit: They look dead on balls accurate to the Total Chaos set without the stickers.

Ohhhhhhh yeeaaah! Definitely almost sold on these! How's all the bushing sleeves on these? That was the major issue with the eBay UCAs is the sleeves inside the bushings being too short.
Can you take measurements of the widths of the sleeves/bushings , inside the sleeve compared to stock. they seem like a good deal and it looks like the same powder coat as the ebay UCA.
