Eagle Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Isn't Jeeps Unlimited still in Providence? They should be able to fix you up with a used stock UCA for not a lot of money until your WJ arms arrive. Or head up to Henry's u-pull in Blackstone on Saturday morning. They usually have a lot of XJs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comanche87 Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 The messed up thing is where it broke i don't see rust. In the past i replaced the bushings with poly ones. I bet thats what happened. From all the twisting. Never put polys in with stock arms! They are on the way. Hope to seethem mond or tues. Luckly I'm able to use another truck for the time being.

Yesterday's Danish Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Isn't Jeeps Unlimited still in Providence? It's worth it just to go see the cute girl that works there. It's an added bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comanche87 Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 Hey jim. I put those in on tuesday. Those were the lowers. I won't deal with jeeps in providence anymore. They were giving a hassel bout something i was going to buy in the past. They even blocked me from buying stuff from them on ebay. They can go screw! Its sad cuz i have delt with them since ive owned a jeep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
