So, let me see if I have this,
You have synergy front uppers with Currie jj's on the front axle (Currie axle kit I assume).
Synergy front lowers. Synergy rear uppers, and stock rear lowers?

Doesnt Metalcloak have a similar joint as the synergy?
Close enough to count?
You're welcome.Thanks for posting your thoughts...why did you go with the Moog rear lowers when everything else was Synergy.
The shop where I had the passenger side axle mount work done, pairs JJ & DDB control arm ends on some builds.
You're welcome.
The Moog LCAs were very inexpensive. It's possible I'll change to adjustable LCAs in the future, but for now I only needed to rotate the pinion down a bit, and remove rear UCA bind.
I like JJs, and I think Synergy's bushing is a good companion in a CA application. Both have 30 degrees of misalignment capability, and the DDB returns to center, which appeals to the side of me that likes things tidy. Maybe I'll be able to use hybrid adjustable CAs when the time comes. The shop where I had the passenger side axle mount work done, pairs JJ & DDB control arm ends on some builds.
Wouldn't you be concerned about the jj's putting additional strain on the Synergy joints? jj's don't return to center, so they could potentially leave the Synergy joint in a constant state of misalignment, thus creating potential premature wear. Now, if the Synergy joint has enough muscle to bring the jj's back in line, I guess it would be doable. Just a thought. I could be way off base.
Wasn't this the issue MetalCloak was talking about to sell more arms? I don't really follow this. If your Jeep is siting on level ground, how much movement is their in your arms? My stock arms are pretty much fixed in place. I don't see how putting a JJ on one end is going to suddenly put the arm in a different position. It seems to me the misalignment is pretty much set by where the brackets are mounted. Am I missing something?
EDIT: I don't think Synergy takes any position on this issue.

4236-01 front axle upper bushing. You could use 4326-02 but will have to drill out for a larger bolt and figure out how you want to mount it on the passenger side. This is one spot where I am going to run JJs as they will be easier to service down the road.So what bushings did synergy quit building part number wise?
