    I am currently putting together a lift for my 2011 DCLB and I have come with a OME lift with the 866 heavy coils because I have a TAG bumper on the front. I am thinking of doing AALs or a full Dakar pack for the rear not sure which I wanna do yet. Also trying to fit a 285 65 r 18 or either 275 70 r18 cooper tire but not trying to rub any. My main question is should I replace the ucas? I can not seem to find any threads on what good it will do you or not if you change them out. If there is any thing else wrong or missing out of my to do list that I am missing I would appreciate the advice thanks ya'll:D.

    Change the UCA's if you're doing a full 3" lift

    And do Dakars no question if you have the extra

    886 coils? Yes
    AAL vs Dakar? Dakar
    Tires...? Either way you're going to rub (on stock bumper) You should be fine with the 285/65r16 running the TJM
    UCAs? Yes, you should replace the UCAs...even though I still haven't...

    UCA's will help with your alignment if you need more camber or caster (LR UCA's). They will also allow for more movement or less binding of the suspension compared to stock.

    Like the other guys said. If you're going 3" get the UCA's.

    Thanks for the feed back, any suggestion on different ucas? Not going to be trail riding or mud slinging, will go off the hard ball every now and then tho
