Baja UCAs

Evening forum. I have a 13 Baja and read that the front travel is limited due to the stock UCAs. Anyone Familiar with this set up? Is there another UCA that can gain more travel iver stock?

 

I will be going with Camburg's very soon.

 

An aftermarket UCA won't give you more travel if you continue to use the stock shocks. If you decide to upgrade to "extended travel" coilovers, aftermarket UCAs are needed to realize the extra shock travel and to avoid damaging the upper ball joints.

 

So does the Baja have the same travel as a TRD? 10" I believe?

 

^The Baja/TRD Pro shock is basically a non-height-adjustable version of Bilstein 6112. It probably has the same travel as the Bilstein 5100, which allows about 0.8" more wheel travel than OEM yellow TRD Bilsteins.

 

Stock uca limits down travel by quite a bit even with 5100s. Don't believe me, jack your truck up by the frame so you are at full droop. Then undoo the two bolts that hold the lower ball joint. The LCA will continue to droop more.
