The BEST UCA's for our trucks... I think I've found them!!!

Just got my alignment done today after I installed my Icons and TC UCAs. On the print out that the tech gave me, caster left before - 3.2, after 4.4. Right before 3.1, after 4.8.
From reading a few threads, this seems pretty high. The truck seems to drive pretty good, what do you guys think?

Other numbers. Camber left before, .5, after .4. Right side before, .2, after .3

Toe left before, -5/8", after 1/32". Toe right before -21/32", after 1/32"

With the Caster set this high, should I look out for anything? Or will this cause a driving characteristic that I haven't noticed yet?

I have a ton of space from the body mounts, and have just a little bit of rubbage on the front part of the inner fender.

 

That is weird my TC UCAs moved my tire so far back into the wheel well I had to remove them because it not only looked goofy but my tire would hit the fender flare and fender when the suspension compressed.

 

Actually, no I didn't. Reread the thread title. Words like "think" need to be focused on... With so many different variables there is no one solution which is the BEST for everyone... I tried to prioritize many of the important factors such as, caster correction, camber correction, price, noise, maintainance (this covers 5 items of interest to me). My opinion, again... my opinion was stated. Things like suspension travel weren't a factor as most people have different suspension set ups and all of a sudden you start throwing in a lot of variables. Long travel, coilovers, shocks, blocks, etc...

I'm going to take the truck off road after I get back from a week+ long business trip across country. I'll take a ton of pics and post back in this thread. Maybe we can do some comparison photos to determine the differences.

 

Bump^

After looking again, at full turn I do not have a 'ton' of space in front of the body mounts. Its pretty close.

 

Seemed like a good thread to add to.


Went wheelin last night, fucked up my door... and knocked my LR UCA out of adjustment in camber (along with my alignment). Went from all of the way out to almost all of the way in. I torqued them to spec with a torque wrench, this time I torqued them much more. Also noticed the boots had fallen down and they were pretty dry and had lot's of dirt inside. I will be needing to lube them.

Not a big deal but... shows you can knock the LRs out of adjustment and keep an eye on the ball joints to see if they have ample grease.

 

Also for anyone that comes across this thread with questions.

this is a good thread too.
