    I currently have a 3in Bilstein lift with aftermarket UCAs and want to add an additional 3in leveling kit on top of that. Should I worry about needing new UCAs or will I be alright? the UCAs I have now are
    LIGHT RACING UCA – 25480 UPPER CONTROL ARM SET
    they have a 0° to +4° of caster and ±2° of camber

    Would these be alright with the additional 3 in?

    You can only get 6" of lit with a drop bracket lift

    Currently you have adjustable bilstein 5100 on the front I assume? I guess the real question is do you want more lift if so the only options are a body lift or drop bracket.

    Yea I got the 5100 and I want a little more lift. Would the body lift work or think it look off?

    I can dig up some body lift pictures for you. They generally are looked down on here on tw. But the general census seems to be if it's a 1" bl it looks fine and functions well
