    trying to get things figured out...
    I've run allpro uca's on a 2014...
    put SPC's on the 2019...
    toytec guy said spc has better road ride quality, better duration due to seals and pivot bearings, but said total chaos was tougher for off road apps...the allpro and total chaos uca's look alike, anybody have 2 cents worth more than my 2 sense, on how they (allpro/total chaos) differ ?

    Tc is a uniball so constant maintenace is required. Most users grease them every few thousand miles and ive even heard of people checking on them every 2-3 gas tanks/500-1000 miles. There is no adjustment and I believe some caster is built in. replacement uniballs are available but expensive.

    SPC is a sealed greasable ball joint and has additional adjustments that you can configure. Easier to maintain and with it being sealed, alot less debris can find its way into undesirable areas. The new axis bushings have virtually eliminated any bushing issues with the previous generation and i have a few friends running them on mild to wild setups with no complaints. (based on your last post)

    I myself am a budget conscientious person and purchased freedom offroad uca for $300.
    Ive worked on all types of suspension components and while ill agree that the higher tier UCAs are bulletproof and have better qc, I see no need to spend 600+ on a daily driver that sees light beach action on the weekends. These UCA got me back to factory spec, not as much caster built in compared to other manufacturers but after a 3" lift i have no issues with articulation or front end control.

    from what i can tell, the pro comp looks exactly the same as the freedom offroads.
