    Didn't read the rest of your post. No you cannot run the Coliovers with stock Lca/UCA

    Just look up the part numbers on chaosfab.com and see if they match for the two different vehicles.

    No, you won't be able to run an 8'' coil over on your stock LCA's.

    Sure thing Dougie, and just run tundra shafts from auto zone with lifetime warranty. U just grind off lip on upper cv where stock boot mounts and use a 930 boot/clamp which will gain u just about full travel like a 2wd. I'm strapped so my uca uni won't bind metal to metal. Cv's aren't limiting my travel :)

    Edit* camburg, total chaos are common. Solo and a few others are out there too....

    The voice of reason haha, thanks Cory, :) I'm taking notes for a project possibly.....;)

    Damn I'm lovin' your truck dude....



    Ya never know......:spy::spy:


    I've got 2 sets of 2nd gen stock UCA's which in itself isn't remarkable at all, but !! I did notice that they're almost identical to 1st gens where they mount on the pivot bolt but the 2nd gens are deeper (larger?) with the upper ball joint connection point is the same but it is more outwardly positioned (towards spindle) so theoretically if they fit should provide more travel at full droop wouldn't you say ?? (just a guess)

    I suppose, but it's gonna throw off the geometry of the front end big time!
