Aftermarket LCA's

Does any other company besides TC offer LCA's?

 

Check out Rock Auto. I believe the ones they sell are an OEM replacement but not made by Toyota. Personally, I'd just use OEM unless you need more travel.

 

I would like to go for more travel. Just not sure I can justify $1600 for the TC's..

 

Doesn't the TC uniball allow for more articulation? Thats the main thing I'm looking for. I over extended mine and now I need to replace the bj in upper and lowers. I heard that the bj were a problem with a 6in lift.

 

Are you looking at the TC's that are OEM replacement length but with a uniball? If so, as far as I know they are the only ones that offer a stock length LCA replacement. You might want to drop a line in the Long Travel BS thread, those guys would be the ones who would know.

 

LSK is in the works of making a stock lenght lower, you can find info on it in the MidTravel BS thread, there is also a member, I believe Underdog, who is replacing his BJ with a Uniball, all of that info is in the MidTravel BS thread.

 

Ultimately I'm looking for a setup for max travel with a 6in db with 6-9in radflo coilovers. I didn't wasn't to keep running into bj problems by running a stock lca. But if I can get away with the stock ones that would be great.

 

Ok. So stock lca's will work. Still a good idea to go tc uca?

 

You're ok with this?! Looks like a mismatched coilover to me.

What part # Icon coilovers are they?

 

If you really want to blow $1,600.... otherwise there's no reason to add them other than if you want to add a second shock up front.

 

Its already lifted. Bought it with the fabtech 6in basic lift with the strut spacer and stocks uca's. Going to replace the uca with the TC and the spacer with 6-9in radflos

 

Stock ones will be fine... 91k miles of abuse from offroading, 6" lift, 35's, 3" lift, and 33's. Just replaced the lca bushings this past weekend

 

I can't tell if you are serious, but I'll definitely cross Icon off my list if their extended coilovers allow for too much droop.

 

Why would you buy extended coilovers if you didn't want the extended droop?!?! Just buy the standard travel versions and be done with it if it's a concern.

 

lol

 

I would buy extended coilovers with the correct extended length so the UCA wouldn't hit the spring.

Judging by your picture, the Icons are too long. I can't imagine they want your spring to limit droop... If they did, I personally wouldn't consider them.

 

my Icon extended coilovers dont hit the coil at full droop

 

Interesting. The only other variable is the UCA. I guess if you're going to run Icon coilovers, run their UCA too.

 

you don't have full droop
