Do a search, particularly around here, on Moog balljoints. I have seen a number of complaints.

The complaints I have seen are consistent with the feedback I have gotten firsthand from friends who have had issues with Moog components on other vehicle platforms.

Spicer balljoints are solid. Theyre not that expensive.

I am ase certified for front end components and alignments, I have never heard of moog being a problem manufacture of front suspension parts. Ever. They stand by their warranty, and at one time were one of the only manufacturers that even offered a grease fitting on ball joints, tie rods etc. 51 yrs old, been driving since 1985, in not new at this and I don't give a shit about what Twitter says. I'm into real world data.

Evidently your not very good at your job, my age and yrs experience in the trade tell another story.

Update for anyone researching coils...the OME 2930 coils went on my jeep today. Jhad to address my bumpstops so I figured may as well update and upgrade the springs while I had things apart. With one extra coil spring isolator on each side of the front I ended up with 2.25 inches lift.. The springs complement the OME shocks that were already in there quite nicely.

Btw I have aftermarket bumper and winch in front

rod knee, it's all good. I haven't a been a member here very long but I've been on this forum for a very long time. I don't have a Lotta posts. But I do have knowledge to share on the jeep XJ. What I don't want to see is another XJ brother overpaying for some thing. RCP phx you're just kind of a **** really. If you don't like my posts keep it to yourself really. If that's not clear . EAD, eat a dick

Another thing I'm actually running the coils you posted about, not sure if any of the "critics" are actually running them..........real world data.

Regarding the CC782 V8 coils, I just finished the refresh of the suspension today about lunch time with my oldest boy. I think they work great and tide is firm initially but am sure as others have mentioned, they will become more compliant in a month or two. Along with that I did the rear Husky leafs and added an OME add-a-leaf. (Have the 2930 coils and 033rb packs and other goodies collecting dust for another day) I'll attach a couple photos from today and one from purchase about 2 years ago. 225k on her today and she is like Brand-used now! It's a great budget move and similar to Upcountry package. I'm running 225/70-16 now and have 245/75-16 to mount in a couple weeks.

Shawn57nomad not sure about others but the photos are not showing for me.

I hope this set up really does ride like the Up Country. My last XJ was the real package and I ran it that way for about 7 years before putting a full OME and JKS package on it with adjustable arms. With the OME and all the Heim joints I had you could feel everything but it soaked up the bigger stuff so much better.

This old beast I bought the other day needs a refresh so I ordered the same springs and I am hoping for that old ride I remember.

Also considering doing the WJ LCA swap on this XJ again.

You say you've been here a long time yet you certainly by your posts and your build don't know jeeps!
