    Thank you, I appreciate the info! I don't mind the maintenance of a uni-ball UCA at all, I just am really curious on the strength of the SPC UCA over a Total Chaos or similar. The only reason I am considering the SPC is because I can get it as part of a combo at a cheaper price.

    What would you do :

    On monday I put an order request in for the BP-51's from Low Range and it is as follows:

    BP-51 Full Kit - $2855.70 W/ FREE Shipping
    SPC UCA - $300
    As well as 6 x $50 Gift Cards - FREE
    T-Shirt - FREE
    Total $3155.70
    All I need to do for this is send my paypal order


    *OR*

    OK4WD.COM

    BP-51 Full Kit is $3173.95 and they offer the SPC UCA's as a FREE addition.
    I have a 5% off coupon making it $3015 w/FREE Shipping.


    So I am paying a little more up front from LRO but getting $300 in gift cards which I assume you can only use $50 per order and that is after 2017 starts. I am leaning towards OK4WD's deal.

    As I mentioned to a guy in the Oregon forum, I would rather see you go with JBAs or do a uniball. I'd assume if you are putting that much money into the suspension, you are going offroading enough that a uniball would be worth your while.
    If you are really wanting Light Racing arms, I'd rather have you buy mine at a lower price than what they are selling - not as a means to undercut them, but I still feel you would outgrow them.

    Pure awesome sauce right there!

    How many times have you taken your suspension apart to have done it in 90 min? I haven't taken much apart on my truck besides bolting on sliders and taking the rear bumper off and installing a plate bumper. I was going to have a shop do the suspension but if I wait until we get dry weather again, I might just attempt it myself in the driveway.....doesn't seem overly technical?

    You can change out a tire right? If you can do that, you can do this

    No problem changing a tire! Suspension stuff just seems more complicated but the YouTube videos from Total Chaos make it look pretty straight forward.

    Coil over is literally 5 bolts. 3 on top, 1 bottom mount and the uca to push that out of the way (assuming you leave the sway bar out). Uca's are a pain because you have to bend the sheet metal back and the battery can be in the way but other than that with 2 people it's pretty easy.

    2 other times before this time.... the drivers side UCA bolt took the longest because I have an ato dual battery box that was in the way.... take the grill off... way easier to drive the bolts with a long screwdriver.
