A "Off set" upper ball joint is commonly used to fix camber issues. I know of one person who used lowers to add some caster lifted 4" +

Have the alignment checked and go from there.
As far as a truss or sleeve .. Your choice. I would gusset. if anything were to bend/break... Upgrade, it's not really worth putting money into a 30 Imo.

 

I am running 35's on my Dana 30 and went with the Synergy sleeve and gusset kit. Felt it was better to be safe than sorry. Teraflex just released some trick ball joints this month. Might want to check them out.

 

One thing to consider is that some adjustable ball joints are just cam bolts under the covers. They work until they become loose and then they magnify the subsequent problems. An off road suspension is not an ideal place for cam bolts.

 

FYI ... There's a difference between a offset balljoint and a adjustable ball joint. TF's I believe are adjustable meaning preload.

 

Per what spinlock has already mentioned, are you really better off just to stay away from adjustable Ball Joints?????????

 

A member on JKO uses these for the uppers

I believe he's using Moog for lowers

I know he gained a degree or so in caster angle. Forget if he changed camber.

Caster correction w/offset ball joints? - JKowners.com : Jeep Wrangler JK Forum

There not weaker but they don't last long. You'll be lucky to get a year out of them. Years ago they where the only cure for lifted ford f150's. Buy a set of adjustable lower control arms and be done with it.

As far as I know he's still running them. I did send him a PM Sometime last year, all was good.
Compared to the factory joints, the uppers are greasable which I'm sure helps.
Looks like he went with RayBestos brand upper and lower... Not MOOG.

I think it's time for a update, I'm going to shoot him a message.

 

I had Synergy Ball Joins installed, think they are much better than moog from what I've heard. They weren't adjustable but they were greasable, here's a link, they might make adjustable ones

No .. Synergy does not make a off set ball joint.
Great joints, I run them.

 

I talked to the shop again. He did say they were "off set ball joints". He had to press them into place making sure they corrected the alignment. I'm still not sure they would hold up to wheeling.
