    Whats up boys,

    I've done a lot of work to my 98 tacoma and that includes the 6 inch fabtech lift that I installed on it. Recently I have been hearing a lot about how it may be beneficial for me to upgrade my upper control arms. Does anybody have any thoughts on this, is it worth the money or pretty much just cosmetic?

    Aftermarket control arms work well to help achieve proper alignment after lifting a vehicle.

    These are specifically intended to work on vehicles with a suspension lift IE coilovers that provide lift while using the stock mounting points.

    In your case, you are running a drop bracket kit. The kit itself is what provides the lift versus your actual coilovers so no, aftermarket arms won't benefit you.
