Does anyone know who might make these? I will probably fab my own, but if I can find some decent ones, for a good price, I might just save myself the hassle. I built my own lower long arms, and built my own adjustable uppers. Now, since the rear upper mounts on the frame are starting to twist and welds have broken, Im going to make my longer uppers and need new mounts. Any ideas?

Did you use heim joints on the frame end of the UCA's? If so, you may want to check out Avalance Engineering. (http://www.avalancheengr.com/parts/suspension/suspensions-links_with_heim.htm)


They have a pre-fabed link support bracket which would probably work with your setup, in combination with some misalignment bushings. The Avalanche site has pictures of the bracket, bushing, and heim-jointed control arm.

This is the left side upper rear mount on my ZJ for a triangulated four link. A 3/4-3/4 heim spaced down to 9/16 with misalignment bushings is bolted here.

here is what i came up with for my triangulated uppers for my tj

http://www.jeeps-in-progress.com/pics/14b/14b03.jpg

its the stock bracket cut off the frame rail and run with 1/4" plate. this pic was about half done.... the subframe assembly for the long arm kit had a bolt going though the frame right there which made it easy to bolt it on until it was welded in place.
