HELP with UCA!!

I hear you. I considered swapping it back. I got the drivers side back in normal. What’s everyone else’s opinion on the backwards install of the UCA long bolt? I’m genuinely curious

 

Forsure flip that bolt I’ve seen them come lose before facing the right way and arms still come out but the tundra first gen come factory this way all the newer stuff comes from the front

 

^this has happened to me. Bolt was in the correct orientation and I lost the nut Offroad. Had to drive (a friend gave me a ride) and hour each way to find replacement parts and fix it in the desert.

 

I’m no mechanic but this shit is fun. So if you guys need me I’ll be taking everything apart again since I just got cleaned up naturally and we will flip this bolt. ! Appreciate all your helpful suggestions.

 

A long pry bar and a hammer will help.

 

look at the install sheet it will tell you how to install it. the ball joint rotates. if u want more caster put ball joint pointed straight back and parallel with the truck. u adjust your camber afterwards. and u fine tune it at alignment shop. Make sure it sits in the slots.

 

How’d it go?

 

It went great. Took it to the alignment shop today. Drives great now. Thanks everyone !

 

I would never run the uca long bolt backwards. I'd rather a nut fall off not the entire bolt

 

Also here’s what my alignment shop got me let me know what you think. I’ve got 5100s and 887s. (Probably could tell from the pics) Also running stock wheels and stock
265-75-16
Left caster 3.05
Right caster 3.69
Right camber -0.10
Left camber -0.04
Right toe 0.07
Left toe 0.07

drives good. Slightly stiffer maybe? But I like that. Feels like I have better control.

 

If you have a trd off road the stock suspension is ridiculously soft. New shocks and springs are amazing!
