Looking at a few options here, and coming up dry
Do any companies make uniball upper control arms? Heim jointed steering? Affordable (read non-Cognito) braces/supports?

JD fab makes Uniball tubular uppers, heim tie rods, and a beastly idler arm. Guess non of this meets the "Affordable" part tho

Plus I can't hang a front axle on leafs when my rear axle is coil supported OE!
I'm looking specifically for IFS components right now, my Tahoe will be SAS'd with a Dodge axle and radius arms. In due time

Kryptonite makes nice stuff, Not uniball tho.
Why do you want all uniball or heim jointed? Have you used them in the past?

Is what I posted what you're looking for? I have the Idle and UCAs they are both badasses.
I have the Kryptonite tierods they are awesome as well.
Keep that a secret don't want anybody else expecting anything!

I'd personally prefer a tubular upper with something like Camburgs X joint Ball joint. Or if it has to be a uniball at least do a nice top cover like Camburg does. I have these arms on the taco and they have a ton of travel with no noise whatsoever.

Heims and uni's are a little noisy when dirty, but they are tough SOBs and can take a ton of abuse. BJ's typically are a much smaller bearing surface and wear out much faster. Regardless of the amount of grease or type of grease you squirt in there, they just can't handle the load from a load spreading/dynamic distribution perspective
Since 1500 GM's have arguably the weakest IFS components in the history of IFS, I am looking to see what options are out there to beef up our front ends
