    Such a huge price difference though! :(

    What about freedom off-road UCA?

    I still have the stock ucas. My alignment numbers are close enough to what's recommended here that I'm not buying anything. I only know the JBAs from seeing them here and they seem to be a reputable lower cost option.

    Eww those freedom off road arms have bonded inner bushings just like OEM UCA... no freaking thanks.

    its all of like 100 bucks more for the SPC arms...... for a QUALITY product that is known to be tough.

    you willing to risk your 30k$ truck, let alone your life to some sub par UCA's cus you were too cheap to spend the extra 100 bucks.

    Whether a job be big or small do it right or not at all....

    I have the JBA UCAs, and I couldn't be happier with them. Great quality from a reputable source at a very competitive price. Got my caster right where I want it.

    I'm going with Tuff Country. Found them with discount code for +$300. Toytec wants almost $600 for the SPC option. I'm not racing, so why install racing arms?

    Gents, I bought myself a pair of Tuff Country UCA's and I am unable to use them... So I'm selling them. They are still in the original box. I would like to get most of what I spent ($330) back. Any takers?

    Yes, for what I'm using them for (light off road to fishing spots and camping), they work just fine. These also allowed me to get the alignment specs recommended by several users in Tacoma World with a 2 1/2" front lift. Just be sure to keep them greased...

    I’m running the Tuff Country’s and don’t have a problem. I’m just a weekend warrior that does a little off-road getting to fishing holes and camping spots in Northern CA. Seem to do the job just fine for what I do.
