Oh shoot. Let me go sell my other kidney now for more truck parts. Great work from everyone involved, innovating stuff. I’ve been watching the original thread for awhile now.

 

So is this LCA part something that would work well with my new Dirt King LCA's

 

It’s ideal for your setup

 

Sold out already huh?

 

Thank you sir

 

More will be ready in the next week

 

I have an SOS Concepts front skid plate can I still use this

 

I’m sure it could be made to work

 

Another question- Are your LCA pivots compatible with JBA high caster UCA’s or are your UCA’s necessary ?

 

How much caster do the JBA’s add?

 

3*

 

3 degrees. Thanks

 

Can you adjust them to have less? The lower arm pivots put the caster at 4 degrees with the lower arm perfectly centered using stock upper geometry. 3 degree caster will work the lowers will just have to be aligned to reduce the over all caster to 4-5 degrees

 

JBA aren’t an adjustable UCA. But sounds like that isn’t a deal breaker. Thank you

 

So has anyone ran the LCA pivots with 35/37 tires? Last I saw was a 295 size tire.

 

another nod for adjustable ucas. currently have SPC ucas and really having the right alignment and geometry takes you much further down the trail.

 

Yes, a minor cmc is required

 

Interested to see if LCA pivot would work with a 3rd gen as well. Following

 

Agreed, with different thickness shims, this kit allows a forward mounted adjustable LCA (without maxing the adjusters), combined with SPC you can place the tire exactly where you want it and get the alignment numbers you want

I'll be installing soon and trimming for 35's at the same time. Expecting to do a CMC and some hammering on the backside. Hoping I will not have issues with the upper front part of the wheel well under the battery/washer reservoir. Will play around with how far forward the wheel is moved with the spring off the coilover to try to minimize the forward contact. Have a dual battery and compressor up there that I don't want to weaken the metal support for or relocate. Can shim the bumpstop if absolutely needed.

 

Please post some updates/ photos whenever to get around to playing with it. I’m very interested to see how the tire travels upwards with the pivots
