[QUOTE="Cali_bay, post: 292243, member: 3991"] If you look at the Red9 wishbone kit the load is taken on one upside down ball joint, the upper one just controls the rotation and vertical movement and doesn't take any of the vertical reactive load from the suspension system. Whilst ball joints carry more load in the other direction, they still operate loaded the other way up, but wear life could be reduced. At any given moment though only one balljoint will be taking maximum load on the drop spindle route as well. :| The company's selling these parts, must have confidence in their products to sell them, because they would potentially carry the can for failures.
