Krawler joint longevity

Showroom said:

I'm looking at replacing my stock jk arms with rock krawlers arms. I was wondering if anyone has experience with their joints. What kind of milage can I get out of them before rebuilding? I'd like to get at least a couple years out of them. Also as they start to wear do they start to get noisy and thump around when going over every little bump on the road?
I like the fact that RK arms are solid arms.
Or would something else with a Johnny joint be better.

Any arm with polyurethane joints will squeak unless you keep them greased on a regular basis. I have no experience with their spherical joints but on that end, I haven't heard too many people complain about them so I would imagine they are doing okay. Again, just keep them greased and you should be good to go.

I have no experience with their joints, but I think I saw on youtube that the polyurethane joints are about $5/each to rebuild when they do wear out
