    Hello all, anyone know of any coilovers that will fit w/ stock UCAs w/ out rubbing. Im looking for 1-2 inches of lift. I just need to find some that I can run for a couple months until I have enough money to pick up new UCAs as well.

    I could be wrong, but i believe all 2 and 2.5" coilovers will clear the upper control arms. However 2.5"+ lifts may not be alignable without upper control arms that add caster. Also that caster can be used to move the tire forward in the wheel well to fit bigger tires.

    I'd recommend waiting a few months to install the coilovers if you're going to be getting right back in their to install the UCA.

    Whereabouts in MA are you? A bilstein 5100 with the 5100 spring can be adjusted to give you a height like that. I do agree that you should wait and try to do it all at once. A lot easier that way. What type of UCA were you looking at? How much were you planning on spending on everything? What type of lift do you have now?

    Currently I just have a 2 inch leveling kit, just the spacer on top of the stock coils, but I did a cab mount chop and am running 295/75s so I definitely need a suspension upgrade. Im looking to spend a little under $1400 up front, my last truck had fox 2.0s w the TC UCAs. Im probably going to go with the SPCs this time around
