I’ve narrowed down my lift choice to Metalcloak and Synergy. Both companies have maintenance free dual durometer bushings which is a big plus for me. I had Johnny Joints on my TJ and they worked great, but looking for something that doesn’t require maintenance. I really want to go with Synergy because of their pinch bolt design over Metalcloak which has a jam nut and I like the color of Synergy arms better (I know this shouldn’t matter).
However I’m hung up on Metalcloak’s claim that their arms/joints are the only ones that are in the correct alignment? If you’ve installed either of these two and have some feedback on the arm/joint alignment please share your feedback. If I’m interpreting Metalcloak’s claim correctly, all of the other manufactures would have their bushings under stress at normal ride height which isn’t good? It seems like it would also make “non-Metelcoak” arms hard to install because the bushings would not line up with the bolt holes in the brackets very well.
