Replacement boot for UCA ball joint

[Shoey]

The boot that is on there says "SPC", is this related to the Light Racing UCA?

In any case, it has a small tear in it. I would like to replace the boot as soon as possible, anyone know where I can get a new one?

Yes... SPC stands for Specialty Products Company and they make the Light Racing UCAs. They have good customer service so just give them a call.

now would be a great time for you to check the bj and bushings on those pos arms

I'm not familiar with the quality, but up until this point I feel as if people had spoken positively about the arms. Anything in particular? If the arms are "pos", should I order a replacement ball joint from them or someone else?

Thank you

people have had issues with premature balljoint failure ( [MENTION=55855]zopperman[/MENTION] [MENTION=46025]HokieRunner[/MENTION] ) and issues with bushings wearing out fast on the old design as well as the arms actually breaking at the welds ( [MENTION=75144]crashman[/MENTION] )

It might worth just replacing the BJ while you have them apart, also inspect the bushings to make sure they didn't crumble yet. While you in there check the welds for cracks.
