They are Barnyard Customs arms. http://WWW.BUILTBYBYC.COM/ They are very heavy duty. They come with poly bushings, tierods etc... I'll post some more when I get them on. I just got the lowers for now.

I may be a dumba$$ but I dont know if I would trust the little plate where the balljoint is. It just doesnt look very reinforced.

What do you guys think about this 'liability' statement copied from their web-site. Note the part in italics . . ....
Barnyard Customs will repair or replace any Barnyard Customs products found upon our inspection to be defective in materials or workmanship within 12 months from the original purchase date. This date will start at the date the products are delivered to the end user on backordered products. The warranty is for the original purchaser or wholesaler. Neither the seller nor Barnyard Customs or any representative of either will be responsible for any loss or damage or injury from any cause including defects of Barnyard Customs products. under no circumstances shall Barnyard Customs, the seller or any representative of either be responsible for consequential damages with respect to economic loss or injury to person or property, whether as a result of breach of express or implied warranty, negligence or otherwise. Barnyard Customs products are designed and manufactured for off-road, and/or show vehicle use. Barnyard Customs products are not D.O.T. approved or intended for street use. Purchase and/or use of Barnyard Customs products implies recognition and acceptance of this entire warranty and disclaimer by customer. Any use of Barnyard Customs products for uses other than the intended original use will void the warranty. This includes but is not limited to the following: Racing, hopping, 3 wheeling, jumping, dragging or any contact of the parts with any road surface or other object by accident or on purpose. Barnyard Customs products are in our opinion "overbuilt" with oversize tubes and thicker than needed plates and brackets. We feel these parts will not break even under the harshest conditions. However, people find ways to break anything. Be safe and use our products smartly

their just trying to cover their ass. IMO, has nothing to do with how they feel about their products. Just legal stuff. That statement in italics is very common among aftermarket companies. I'm sure they just copied it from some other company's website.

Personally, I would rather buy control arms that are DOT approved. They are a pretty important part of the vehicle. I realize everyone does stuff differently, and some people will buy these and use them on the street with no problems. I hope no one has a problem with them, they do "look" beefy. Maybe they are trying to get DOT approval now, and they have that disclaimer until they do obtain approval. Who knows??

Well I thought about it long and hard, I decided to go with ART strong arms.
they were only $180 more shipped for upper and lower. They should be at the house by the time I get home from this deployment. Can't wait!
