    I hope so. And i understand what your saying.
    I geuss time to order 1" spacers.
    I hope another 1/4" is all i need.
    I have a buddy with 1.25" spidertrax that im going test out.
    Thats too far, but it will give me a idea if 1" will work.

    Oh, and just a tip for those getting these UCA's.
    The steel spacer they provide, I highly recommend painting them. Every photo i see, that spacer is all rusty. See in my photos, ive sprayed them black.
    JBA might want to invest in coating those..:)

    Yeah, you stick out just a little bit more than me. I think I will just give 1" spacers a try. But what size tires are you running?
    Thanks for the photo.

    Boost, armor, lights, big tires, no savings.
    @Blackout14, running 34s huh? Just ordered the new Falken AT3W in that size. Can you post or pm some of your experience making them fit, happy with the size, did you regear? Not many running that size to compare to. Thanks

    Are you still around? How did your alignment turn out and how does it drive now?

    I'm still here, alignment turned out great I'm running about 2.7* of caster and it rides awesome. I've never owned or installed any other arms but I don't regret the decision to buy these at all. Only complaint is they're red... if you could even call that a complaint.

    I'm not much for painted undergarments either. Just give me black and I'll put your sticker on the back to advertise. Of course I say that and my '14 FJ TTUE has factory red coils, haha! I'm actually interested in these UCAs for my other '07 FJ but am not getting much feedback on FJCruiser forums, so I'm doing my research here. Thanks

    I don't many on the fj forums even know about these, so ya not much info. I'll likely be picking a set up for my FJ soon as there a few guys here in MA with tacos running them with good results.

    3 things sold me on these arms.

    1. JBA has been in the Jeep world for a long time. So not a new company.
    2. The way he utilizes the ball joints. So simple yet so effective.
    3. Cost.
