Advantages of Roto Joints vs traditional ball ends I just ordered and recieved a new UMI PHB with Roto Joint ends. Sam Strano explained to me the advantages of the roto joints over the other styles but I can't remember what they were. Does anyone know or have any insight? Thanks

Hello
Thanks for the business and choosing UMI Performance! The difference is the roto will give you a better ride quality over a rod end. But also hold up just as well. But if you are looking for a set up for a daily driver, AutoX, Road Racing. Then the Roto is what I would suggest. If you are going for more a the strip set up or serious HP I would suggest looking into the rod end (will hold up better under aggressive launches). If you have any other questions feel free to ask!
Thanks

i just picked up a double adj panhard with roto joints as well... what grease would you recommend besides your own obviously haha... just looking for something more readily available that can be bought in parts stores... i'm thinking all purpose grease would be fine?... any specific brand?
