Looking for info on the upper ball joint, since the SBA is different from the RMK. I have everything to install, but need some clarification on fitments. The OEM RMK upper ball joint fits loosley in the zbroz arm. I would think this should fit snug to keep from moving on hard impacts. I might be wrong, this is the first set of zbroz arms I've installed. Hard to see in the pics but you can see the gap between threads and arm hole.

Thinking out loud here, does the nut on the inside of the ball joint/arm hold it centered? I'll step out to the barn and check the inside diameter of the arm gusset.

The SBA and Pro RMK use different upper joints. The upper joint bolt through to the top of the spindle on the SBA is M10. Upper on the Pro RMK is M8. (And if not the upper SBA is M12 and Pro is M10- but one size different.

I put Pro RMK arms on my '15 SBA and ran into this issue. Had to change spindles to the PRO version.

The pics are of pro RMK spindles and rod ends. The arms are for a pro RMK too.

i run zbroz set up on my 12 sba

make sure you have the correct rod end in there and maybe verify with zbroz the hole size and correct armd

the number should be 7061178, if you look at the picture its a through hole in a swivel joint(rmk), not a swivel with a stud(sba).

i dont recall mine being that sloppy
