    DSM now offers a new Billet Aluminum Upper Control Arm kit from 74weld.
    Sonny has been running them on his 5th gen 4Runner and could not be happier.
    These UCA's are unique because they have been manufactured out of Billet Aluminum on a 5th axis machine.
    The uni-ball cup follows the same geometry that you would get out of a chromoly steel after-market UCA, correcting the geometry that is lacking in other billet arms and in doing so it will put less wear on the uni-ball itself.
    Also built with poly bushing pivots rather than heim pivots. This will not only make for an overall easier install and alignment, but will make the rebuild process less expensive when it comes time to service the arms. With the uni-ball geometry corrected and bushing pivots, these arms will last longer between service times than other billet arms on the market.
    They come as pictured with a hard anodized bronze finish, FK heat-treated stainless steel with a bonded PTFE liner uni-ball, all hardware, bushings, sleeves and with a cap to cover the uni-ball.

    Application: 2005-2020 Toyota Tacoma 2wd Pre-Runner / 4wd. 2003-2018 Toyota 4-Runner. 2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser.
    These are now in stock

    Shoot me a PM for TW pricing

    open exposed/closed sealed. ball joint will last longer and not be so loud over time. ball joints are less expensive to replace, and do better in harsh weather.

    These are so sweet. I really like the cap that seals the uniball top of the UCA. Great service and help from Micha @Downsouth Motorsports
