    Wow. I haven't heard about that before. I might pick up set of OEM LCA bolts to have just in case. Thank you!

    Thanks for the heads up. The install went fine and the Moog cam bolts fit perfectly. I didn't grease them up before install (which I should have in hind sight), but I'll pump some grease into them later today. The super thin alignment tabs do have me worried. I wish I ordered a set of the TC alignment tabs to install since the LCA was coming out anyways.

    Yup. Got a welder, but I really don't want to tear things apart right now since I just got everything squared away this week (install, alignment, rotation and balance, grease, torque check) and I leave for a 2000 mile road trip this Sunday. I'm 80% pavement pounder and 20% fireroad/easy overlander. I'll work on it in March and get it fixed up right so I don't have to worry about it.

    Anyone use the JBA UCAs with the Bilstein TRD Pro kit PTR13-36150 on a second generation Tacoma?

    Which Firestone did you go to? The one local to my house can't get the Caster to 3 or close to it like I request, even with adjustable UCAs.

    Not yet. But I have a 3rd gen and had the TRD Pro kit PTR13-36150 delivered yesterday and just ordered JBA UCA's. I'm going to add HS 1/2" spacers on the front coils as well to help with the weight of my rock sliders and full Mobtown Skid plate set. I'm hoping it's not going to be too high.

    One thing to think about is if the studs on top of the coilovers are tall enough to accommodate the 1/2" spacer on top. I'm not sure if they can or not, but it may be something to look into.

    Yeah I thought about that so the spacers I bought came with longer studs. The studs on the new shocks look to be quite a bit longer so I might not need to replace the studs. I'll probably see if I can find a shop to disassemble the shocks and replace the studs so I don't find out they're too short while I have my truck apart.

    Ordered mine last night and already got a shipping notification. :thumbsup:

    I also got like 12 emails, a little heavy on the email campaign, but I'll deal with it for a great deal on some quality UCA's.
