    Haven't had luck finding this information on the boards.

    Is anyone running a mid-travel setup comprised of the Light Racing SPC UCA's + one of the Extended Travel offerings (Icon/King/Fox)?

    Do these control arms work with a mid-travel setup or must I go with a uniball setup?

    Also there used to be a "Mid travel BS thread" but I can't find it. Anyone have a link?

    I'm not sure how well the SPC UCAs will work there, uniballs are designed for working with more travel. I think the standard balljoint UCAs like SPC are more for those with standard travel lifted trucks looking for better alignment numbers. Not to say they won't work at all I just think uniballs would give you more of what you want

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Spc will provide the additional travel, enough for your tierods and CV to bind first at least. They articulate farther than OEM sealed ball joints.
