    My son got a 2003 V8 4Runner, and the driver side front upper control arm broke. The upper control arms are by JBA. Is that a good company, or should I get something else?

    inputs?

    I have JBA UCA on my 2021 and they are excellent products. I’m very happy with them.

    you will get lots of opinions about UCA…

    Cheers,

    Broke in what way? The ball joint and bushings are all replaceable. I can't see the upper control arm structure breaking unless your son did a few sweet jumps with it, in which case I hope he got it on video!

    I feel like we need a little more detail, perhaps a picture?
