The tuff country UCA are good. I have no complaints at all. Made a pretty noticeable difference while I had my 285’s on. I would definitely recommend them!

Haha yeah, the SCS Ray 10's were awesome wheels. Although, it really pissed me off when i tried for 6 months to get a matching wheel for my spare and was never able. I got over playing the limited production BS!

Here's my last print from Schwabs. I'm not an expert by any means about alignment but i noticed a pretty big difference from before and after the uca's with my old lift and 285's . I had it lifted a little over 3" in the front and about 2" in the back. Adding the UCA's and getting it realigned made the steering feel much more stable at freeway speeds.

Went to another firestone and got them to try again with my alignment and the technician was able to get me 1.7 on caster and my toe and camber are at about 0.04. Technician talked with me the whole time to make surebi was happy with my numbers. Still want new upper control arms cause I want about 2.5-3 degrees of caster.
