    ToyTec 620#s ordered from @Wheeler's Off-Road Inc... they took great care of me (as always).

    But watch, @foxrcing07 will find a set, on Craigs, for a hundred bucks tomorrow.

    Looking for aftermarket upper control arms.
    I was leaning towards SPC but let me know what you have.

    I have SPC on my truck and really like them. I like the fact that they have a boot on the joint and the Ball Joint is really easy to get to and replace (for when I need to replace in the future).

    If/when I build another truck, it'll have uni-ball UCAs (and LCAs) but for this truck, SPC is more than adequate for me.

    SPC are fine, you will get more travel with the TC.

    I thought they might be better than my OEM stuff with 60k on them, maybe not.

    The fact that the 3rd gen fronts would keep my at my 1" lift was the selling point lol

    My son will be driving this year and he called dibs on my OR suspension and wheels. If that weren’t the case I would just given the suspension to you. There is a lot of truth to what Angelo said though.

    Post that pic in the mod day thread and tag Headstrong. I'd like these vendors to know what we're up to.
