    No uca's, since I have a 2.5" lift. Ome 885s on a dbl cab wont be 3" without spacers. Ask toytec why they build the kits the way they do.

    You got lucky.. Many people with a 2.5" lif need UCAs to get them o within factory alignment specs...

    2.5 without having to worry about anything....

    Any 2.5" lift may need UCAs... You just added 400-600 to your total...

    Sorry, but as they say... You gotta pay to play...

    Bilstein needs to make a shock that has a 2.25" option, or a height that doesnnt require UCA's
