    UCAs and shocks is a decent mid travel kit perfect for lifting and correcting camber over 3", but replacing LCA usually means long travel. That's new brakelines, tierods, axles if you're 4x4, fenders, more expensive shocks, and that's just off the top of my head. About $1000 vs an easy $4000.

    Do it black. It looks like you already have dark taillights and the matte black will match the rest of the bumper. Ask me how I know......:thumbsup:

    Didnt real through all these so it may have been covered...sorry. but LCA's are not required when upgrading to MT and the UCA are swapped just so you can articulate more and bring the vehicle into better specs with caster, once you have longer travel front susp. LCA are seen more once you start getting LT numbers of travel.

    And the stock tacoma ones are quite beefy actually.

    The factory lower control arm has 3 decent size holes that go right through it so I plugged them with bolts that hold on my RCI metalworks LCA skid plates. For what I do the factory lower control arm is plenty. But I will most likely get new lower control arms anyway because I don't like doing just enough.

    Love me some Canadian winters - just put everything on hold for a few months and it'll be fine!

    Those step bars are so awesome - make please?
