    Considering these but can't find a whole lotta info on them.

    I have BP-51's with medium leaf springs and have been really happy with them.

    My coilovers are set to about 1" preload but I am going to add a leaf and set my coilovers to around 2" and get 33s or 34s.

    This said I was going to go with SPC UCA's but they are backordered.

    I never realized OME had their own UCA's and they are roughly $100 less.

    Long story short, does anyone have experience with these?

    Would also like feedback on the OME UCAs. I like OME/ARB as a company and they have great customer support. Tempted to pull the trigger on a Black Friday deal.

    That's because they're new on the market, only a couple months old. I'd wager they are solid as is everything OME. @cruiseroutfit may have more info.

    Does anybody have a Black Friday deal on these? I’m running a set of delta joints but wouldn’t mind getting a set of these to match my BP51’s.

    Just wanted to let everyone know that I went ahead and got these.
    Was picking up something from Toytec and they said they're a hit.
    Couldn't find them anywhere but ended up finding them online for a fair price.
    Haven't installed them yet (just showed up today) but first impression is they are beefy and have a nice finish on them.
    I will update once installed and alligned.

    They're going to look nice with my BP-51's (which I have been super happy with).

    I've had these for quite some time now and they have performed really well overall. The only thing I see as a "flaw" is that you can't use the top dust cap without first removing the zerk fitting. I never put the cap on and just use a Zerk cap instead.

    I just remove the cap and install the zerk when I need to grease them.
    Not sure why this is considered a flaw.
    Makes them look so sharp.

    Super quiet.
    I will post my latest alignment numbers when I get home.
    I have the lifetime alignment and get one every time I go wheeling.

    That's why I quoted "flaw" as it is not to the detriment of the function of the arm. Rather, it is more of an observation that to me it is not practical to remove and store the zerk each time I grease it. Did you notice, though, that the underside of the cap has a depression? I was told it was to store the zerk on the arm when it is not in use. I found that interesting!

    I’m interested in these as well. I might jump on them if I can find some without the wait.

    I did not notice that but am glad you shared that with me.
    I am going to grease them and store them there tomorrow for sure.
