The upper ball joints should be strong enough. Why should the air bag mounted on top make it weak? Doesn't make sense to me. Seems like everybody knows everything about installing air bags. Between my son and I, I bet we have done over 300. I've done at least 100 myself. The biggest problem with the upper ball joints on any air bag job is the angle when dropped really low. They will break if the upper A Arms aren't modified to keep the correct angle. On this SS it didn't seem to be a problem.
