Default Skunk2 Camber Kit Boot Torn

I was swapping my rims today and this is what I saw...







Blah, so much trouble, I've only had them on for a month.





I checked to see if I installed them wrong but I don't think I did. The other side was fine. Looks like I have to contact Skunk2.

Yes I bought them new. I do not know how to tell if they have to redesigned ball joint. As far as I know the joint is still okay, some of the grease is still inside...

Did those ball joints come with the camber kit, or did you use the OEM ones?

Looks like those ball joints came with the A-arm cause the stocks dont bolt up like that, they are pressed into the arm.

My boots/ball joints are broken as well. I e-mailed skunk and they sent me the replacement ball joint, hopefully it will hold up, other wise i'm just going to ditch the skunk and get ingalls

The ingalls upper control arms w/ sliding ball joint like the Skunk2's, my friend had those and his upper ball joint stud BROKE leaving the spindle separated from the upper arm, leaving him stranded on the side of the road. I say to those Ingalls upper arms.
