Odds are the sf joints are shot. I would personally run the brushing on the axle to tale up any mis- alignment and vibration so the joints won'tI don't always drink orange juice, but when I do, I prefer to chew it. #madpulpComment

i was gonna do that, but if i have the rubber on the xmember, it will smoothen the on road ride which is my main goalGod made the world in seven days, on the 7th day, he made the Le Car

I've never seen an aftermarket kit run this way, only with the rubber/poly on the axle end.Originally posted by LittleD View Post
I don't know for sure if it will make a difference, but it's something to think about.Comment

dont waste your time with SF joints, especially ones you need to tighten. if youre makin arms, start fresh. preferably with something better than SF joints, like the already mentioned currie joints.- Will

I figured since that joint will be the only component contacting the frame, it would be better to have less movement.God made the world in seven days, on the 7th day, he made the Le Car

i wouldnt put a rubber bushing on the crossmember...
all the forces from the uppers and lowers are transfered to that point in a radius arm. the bushing would prolly where out in a month. also the joints at the crossmeber end see the most movement. therefore you would want a spherical joint at that point.
take a look at trail gears creeper joints... i used them on my last build and they are beefy, cheep, and havent had any issues...
so run a poly or rubber on the lower axle... joint on crossmember, joint on upper arm.

CREEPER JOINT
check them out, but if ya go with them be sure to use a few washers or a spacer on them to get the misalignment you need out of them.
i had to scrap a crossmeber becuase i made the tabs 2 5/8" apart and the joint could barely move
