    I just installed my total chaos upper control arms and there is a big difference from before. Before with my stock uca i felt vibration in my staring wheel and now there is none at all and all what i can feel is the groves in the road. This was a very good and way worth investment to my truck. If any one has the same problem i will recommend getting the total chaos upper control arms. It will align your tires correctly and even ware on your tires if you have a lift.

    tell me how those icons ride once you put them on. I heard that they ride a little rough on the road but good off road and off road racing.

    Correct.

    Noticably stiffer on road for small bumps, but bigger hits (potholes, speed bumps, small children, etc.) are actually much smoother.

    It's DEFINITELY more enjoyable offroad than stock.

    x2!

    feels like a sports car on little bumps on road, but soaks up the big stuff real nice.

    you can also remove the sway bar for an even better off road ride, and have barely any more body roll than stock with the bar.


    OP, glad the UCAs worked out! you hear nothing but good things about TC

    How do you think the TC uca's would hold up during winter in ny with road grime and salt? The TC's do look nice and are constantly raved about.

    The same as any other high-quality component on your truck....probably better than factory to be honest. As always, how well you take care of it will play a huge role.

    as long as you keep the uniballs cleaned and lubed the winter salt and sand shouldnt affect them to much.

    I also notices that my front is sitting lower then my rear now and it looks that my front springs and shocks are saging. Will this problem mess up my trany?

    I'm afraid they might be sitting on the bench til after the new year. I've got a friend in town with a lift in his home shop that I can use...but the holiday's got me traveling and doing everything but working on the truck.
