    Thanks for the information. I remember you mentioning that problem. I’m kinda leery of getting the LR UCAs because I hear that alignment techs have no idea on how to adjust them.

    Great info!
    I'm running LR and the techs do just fine. What would be the difference in that and JBA adjustment wise?

    I have a few mods
    thing with JBA that I saw was it only provided caster, which is needed for bigger tires. however I don't know if they have camber correction built in. it doesnt specify if they have that as an adjustment or not. I know for a fact that SPC LR ucas have either camber OR caster, so i think youd be able to keep camber correction to a minimum and allow the wheel to be pushed forwards with caster

    i think as long as you give them what needs to be done, or take it to someone that is knowledgeable, you'll be fine!

    Right on, thanks! I've been happy with the LR uppers. Granted I have the 2.0 model they put out.

    Last night I added 5100s on the 3rd notch and a 2” AAL on top of the spindle lift and 2” blocks already on it. Surprisingly it still rides pretty nice. Only thing I still need to do is add rear brake line relocation brackets.

    I see you're in SoCal. Not sure how far Monrovia is from you but I'd recommend RPM Garage to do your alignment with whatever you end up going with. They do a pretty good job. And they leave the specs the same for both sides unlike most shops which get them within a certain range of each other (driver and passenger side).

    Man I really want to get the 4” Maxtracs and the 3” All Pro leaf pack, but I’d have to get new wheels and tires because I have 16” wheels.

    I have all 16 inch wheels too..As long as they have 4.5 backspacing your good. If not use spacers in the front.

    16’s on 35s and stuck

    Ditto. I have the 16 Konigs. Only have spacers in the rear to even out the width. The maxtracs do push out a little bit too.

    No problemo. As the others have mentioned. Just need to be aware of the backspacing.
