GEN 1 Camburg Kinetik vs Icon Delta Joint Billet UCAs

[downforce137]

im getting ready to pull the trigger on one of these, what are y'all's thoughts on each?

I bought Camburg Kinetik uca's and i had binding problems with them. I do have Camburg uprights, svc lower and it will not work with these. I can't say does it work with different brand parts. Sdhq said that they have not have any issues installing these to Gen 1 tho.
I bought new Icon uca's and no problem what so ever. They have changed design a bit and with new Delta joint it's great product.

Camburg looks like they are still using the standard 1.25 uniball and putting on a cap, that ICON has been doing since the beginning. Crap can still get to the underside.

The ICON delta joint is sealed and has a 5yr warranty, camburg does not. And ICON has a grease zerk, camburg does not. The actual billet arm and heim joints quality look the same.

Does anyone have any experience with the icon delta joint?
I'm looking at replacing my spherical bearings out for these.

I cant speak on the Camburg stuff. I have the Icon setup and the selling point for me was the fact that the Icons allowed adjustment for alignment without removing any hardware.
Been 6 months so far and have had zero issues.

I wouldn't waste my time with the knock off engineered to fail delta joints I would go with the originator EMF Raptor uniballs note the lack of neck down where the delta joints fail.

how these hold up to winter in Canada?

Both are amazing products.

If it were me, I’d honestly go with the Icon DJs just because it’s less maintenance, you sacrifice zero performance and it’ll last much longer than an open unsealed uniball.

The icon UCAs are also easier to adjust for alignments as well.

Shoot me a message. I’d be happy to get you a great deal on either arms! Last I checked they’re in stock too. Free shipping
