Has Anyone Done a UCA Install on SR5?

Got a set of JBAs for my 2022 SR5 that I need to put on. I’ve got all the tools I need, and I more or less understand the procedure, but all of the vids I’ve watched, forums Posts I’ve read, etc. always have a different trim package. Looking in my engine bay where I’d need to slide the bolts in and out, there seems to be an immovable metal pipe on the passenger side that may or may not be unique to the SR5. I’ve looked for confirmation that the procedure is the same with SR5 as with any other taco, but came up with nothing. Anyone else traveled these water? If so, what advice do you have for me? Thanks.

 

Pretty sure it’s the same. Only difference between trims is the shocks/tires/visual package and interior items.

take a picture of this metal pipe you speak of.

If I'm assuming correctly, you're planning on cutting and reversing the bolts. After you cut the old bolts out, when you go to install the new bolts, there are fuel lines that you need to move out of the way. If you pop the fuel lines out of their holder, they can wiggle enough to avoid the bolt.

 

This?

No, here’s some pics of the pipe I’m talking about.

 

@WrecklessAbandon do you remember this pipe being in the way when pulled your UCA bolt?

 

Yeah it was kind of in the way. The bolt came out between the inner fender and the pipe/tube if I remember correctly. Pretty sure I had to tap it out with punch and hammer.
