    Hello Everyone!

    I have a 21 Off Road and I'm looking for a nice lift for it.. I keep hearing good reviews about the 5100's since my truck is my daily. I'm looking more for a nice ride and also some height!.

    My question is, do I need aftermarket UCA's? I've seen some people that don't and some that do, is it really needed? I'm planning on running 265-75-16 tires (for reference)

    Can anyone share their experience with them or your set up :)


    thanks!

    no you do not. the shop owner told me with Bilstein you do not need new UCA. They will just max out the settings to get you the correct alignment. hes done hundreds of tacomas and they were fine without aftermarket UCA.

    me personally I did Bilstein 6112/5160 and still opted for Total Chaos UCA. I didnt need it but it looked cool so I got it. lol. with that said my caster was improved as well as my steering got stiffer. i feel i got more control of the truck BUT still you do not need one.
