Game Changing LCAs (BTFFabrication)

No, stock pivots/mounts. Just running Camburg Sealed uniball UCAs and the BTF LCAs.. plus gusseted Spindles, Coil Buckets, etc. and Poly Performance Cam Tab bolts.

 

These LCAs push that LBJ forward. the JD pivots also push the JBJ forward, among other benefits. You shouldn't need both. If you were going LT the JD kit paired with a bunch of their other stuff would no doubt be awesome. I love the innovation both of these companies are bringing to the mkt.

@Charger92 I'd go for it -- I still haven't trimmed my stops. Yes I can clearly see where they hit the LCA. I don't see it as a show-stopper. It's easy to fix if you want. At least in my head I think I'm helping prolong the life of my CVs by limiting the steering a touch. Either way it's still pretty easy to go get stuck in the snow (pic taking after digging and working a few hundred yards out of a 3-4' powder field -- next time bring a friend haha.

 

Under coat them if you’re worried about them rusting. I trimmed my stops all the way and they just barely hit.

 

For everyone with these arms and steering stop issues, maybe give these a try?https://camburg.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Tacoma-05-19-Steering-Stop-Instructions_web.pdf

 

Cool idea but I can’t find the price on it at all.

 

They charged me $85 for them. I was gonna do these arms but I think I’m gonna make my own lowers to stock specs and then run the jd fab kit for greater adjustability and durability.

 

Did you have to call them? I didn’t see them on site at all. Do you have any pics ?

 

Emailed them. I believe they come with their long travel set ups. I attached a photo of them. They are fairly simple, and $85 was definitely a good bit for what they are but worth it for me to not play with getting the width right.

 

I take it you don't have them on yet. Any ideas where this stop makes contact?
I tried Internet search, but no pics of anyone running them.

 

$0.50 worth of washers can accomplish the same thing. This is on a Tundra rack, but you just need to find a fender washer of the right size.

 

I could have actually done that washer method to find distance and then machined spacers out of delrin at my job. But I don’t have that kind of time usually and camburg knows their stuff.

 

so, ID and OD

what about determining thickness or how many to stack?
if the idea is to replicate the Camburg one (I don't even see it for sale on their site) for cheaper,
in terms of copying their thickness, well that pic shows it pretty thick
looks to be maybe 15mm thick but that's a guess not actual measurement to know for sure

too many washers/too thick would probably mean less inner TRE thread going into the rack which I imagine could be overdone

 

In my case it stops before the outer would go inside "inner rack", you could fine tune to wherever you want to set it to stop.

 

How long did you guys have to wait on delivery? I ordered these LCAs about two months ago and still no update from BTF and nothing on lead times on their website.

 

I did see them in production here:

When was that posted? I don't use social media

 

I ordered mine in late Oct 2022 and they shipped early Dec 2022, so about 5 weeks.

 

Roger that. I figure mine are a few weeks behind that schedule since I ordered just before the holidays started

 

November 30th

 

Well that's disappointing. I ordered the week before...wonder what's going on over there. Maybe I just ordered at the end of one production cycle and the start of another.
