    It's the LCA mount with no bolt on skid plate. I already have custom skids, so I don't need n extra layer of metal under there.

    Everything else is the same.

    Gents, 3rd gen fitment for the LCA is good. The sub frame is the same as the 2nd gen.

    Shall I add you to the list?

    Okay, put me in for the LT kit with CVs, and the steering rack setup. I will also get the steering double sheer gusset please!

    Screw it put me down for a LCA Pivot. It will sit around till my skinny 33 are done.


    I got icon uca with added caster which I believe will need to be sold with this kit. Anyone know if the Kings ext will have contact issues with stock uca?

    Edit: nvm I remember in stock form the ball joint is a limit for droop. Might be ideal if I can keep the icon uca

    Added.

    You can use the Icon UCA, but may not be able to push the LCA all the way forward to clear the firewall. It's adjustable though, so you can dial it in. For sure the Icon is better than OEM.

    That's 10 interested parties on the LCA Pivots!

    Who wants to push CVs over the top too?

    Sorry, actually I want the bushing lowers. I don't want to deal with changing uniballs out yearly with our salty winters up here

    I understand there's a small amount of notching needed to make the 934 CVs fit. I didn't see any picture or mention of this in the other thread but perhaps I missed it. Can you post details and a picture if you have it please?

    I can't leave anything well enough alone
    Same goes for the steering setup too please. I saw the original pics of prototype slide installed, could tell there was clearance made. At the time it was told there was more cutting done than the final version would require. Can you please share info on the final version, detailing the size and location of cuts required as well as the fill plates? thx

    Thanks. Looks super strong. More cutting than I anticipated, but the gusset on the front side makes up for it. gusset covers the threads for swaybar mounting, so anyone with a swaybar, or reservoir mounts that use those holes, or bumper reinforcement brackets that use those threads will need to figure out something different. Probably no big deal for anyone doing this kind of surgery.
