Poly pro uca w ddb bushing

Has anyone run these yet? The bushing design seems similar to whitelines, but with alittle more give.

For that money go JBA, I have never heard of these.


Home page (jbaoffroad.com)

 

poly performance is a pretty well known online off-road shop. It looks like their own brand of UCA which im sure is high quality.

 

Jba/ spc has been my initial plan but I’ve been looking into whiteline bushing and these started coming up in my google ads hahah

 

I don't really see any reason to go with those over a known quantity like SPC or JBA.

 

Go with spc and don't turn back

 

This particular style is likely mass production across old man emu, super pro, tough dog (Australian) companies. Same exact UCA. Maybe getting cranked out of a Chinese factory, not sure.

 

They look pretty good i thought about buying them so i called Poly Performance to get some info and the guy assisting me was acting like a jerk so i decided not to buy them....i wish i remembered the guys name so Poly Performance could be aware of their employees attitude towards à customer

 

We installed the Poly Performance arms on our 2015 with about 2.75" lift. They aligned great, with 4 degrees of caster. So far no complaints at all.

Just got them, will update with install.

 

Have you had a chance to run these yet? I've got my eye on them, keen to hear how your install goes.

 

Replacing the ball joint looks like a pain compared to JBA or SPC, wondering if thats a pressed in design.

 

Yes, just installed last week. Have had a couple hundred miles on them now, night and day difference. They allow for more suspension articulation, even under general daily driven environment. Got 3 degrees of caster, and it tracks very well. Installation was pretty straight forward. Though getting the UCA bolt out is a bit of a bitch. You have to bend the inner fender, and remove a few fasteners on the passenger side and the battery on drivers side to get the bolts out.

 

Ordered mine yesterday hopefully I don't regret it.


Update **

 

Thanks for posting the install pictures, they look good! I'll likely be getting some in the next few months. I don't have a garage, and working on the truck outside in northern New England is not that fun in winter time.

 

just ordered my set of UCAs, but despite being as in stock on the website, I got an email saying they won't ship till end of April. Will post pictures when they come in and I get them installed. Going to be putting in 5100s with the toytech 2.5" lift coils and a medium duty Dakar leaf pack at the same time.

 

UCA are pretty low impact. As long as it is welded with easy to replace bushing and ball joints then who really cares about where it is made.. For LCA sure, strength really matters but for UCAs.. if it fits then it sits

 

These seem like they will be a PITA to replace bushings and ball joints. Hopefully they last a while for me lol. I was tired of having to regrease arm bushings. Werid how these only use one washer one each side.

 

Wether it matters to you or not, if you know they are the same thing out of the same factory, you can pick whoever has it cheapest or with best vendor warranty.
