Looking for someone who can tell me how to tell the difference between a bug and thing front ball joint beam. If anyone can help it would be really appreciated. Thanks Samsonite

A Thing beam has reinforced shock towers (its like a cap is welded over the tower to make it stronger. Next is the Thing beam has both ball joints installed facing down , and I think the Bug has one ball joint facing down and one facing up .Hope this helps

Don't forget the brackets at the rear for the braces that mount to the pan
