Lift + stock UCA limitations?

Not always true, RCD lift and toytec lifts, TC arms, icon stuff, etc. are also on ebay. Yes there is junk but there is decent stuff too.

 

They might be Light Racing, or they might be Camburg.. the point is that an eBay store isn't the place to buy suspension parts like UCAs IMO. eBay has it's place, like for shift knobs and grill surrounds, but for suspension components? Buy from a company like Headstrong Off-road, Wheeler's Off-road, DSM, SDHQ, etc,. who can offer you great customer support and customer service when/if something isn't right.

 

I'd buy from the above companies eBay stores..

I would not buy from ChucksTrucks on eBay, though, which is more to my point. Different strokes for different folks, I think eBay is the Walmart/Dollar Tree of internet shopping and don't buy from their stores.

 

Someone is butthurt.

You have no idea what a difference having a proper alignment is so you really don't know any better. I get that, but don't try to act like there is no reason to get them just because you deal with the shitty ride and wandering wheel.

 

But I dont deal with a shitty ride, and it would take some serious concentration to notice any wheel wandering again, thats the point I was making. Could it be better yes, but it is no where near the gloom and doom terrible ride/handling you say it is, hell no. Ive driven a stock truck and a lifted one, so yes I have an idea of how it should drive/feel and what your heavenly "proper alignment" is.

 

Because a company sells on eBay means the product is bad? Dafuq?

 

There is no reason to be so hostile. You're out of spec and even being IN spec isn't saying much considering the wide window "spec" allows.

You act like I just insulted your family heritage or something. I don't see why you're so angry?

 

Not exactly..

But not the topic of the thread, so if we can - the "where can I buy parts?" questions have been answered.

Let's keep it on alignments with stock UCAs before it drifts too far into the Twilight Zone.

Lot of vendors here selling lots of parts.

Onto alignments and alignment questions.

 

That's why I was wondering why it was even brought up? Seems like a ridiculous thing to say though.

 

I'm not, I'm trying to make a point, that myself and many other guys run stock UCAs and minus caster handles just fine and in spec, your making it out to be that out of spec caster makes for a terrible ride when you have no idea. I believe your original post said "horrible" far from my friend, and guess what its still in spec, my tires wont wear any faster and god forbid I have some wandering if I really try to look for it hard enough. Stop making not running new UCAs, etc. the worst thing in the world or end all be all.

 

I don't remember ever saying it's the worst thing in the world lol. Drama queen? I still don't see why you're so angry?? We have countless posts on here with countless alignment sheets with people asking "how does my alignment look?" So yes, proper alignment IS important to some people. I get it, you don't care about your alignment. I really don't care lol.

 

And??? They ARE horrible lol. Is that the same as "worst thing in the world" to you??

The butthurt runs deep with you.

 

Far from dude. Just trying to figure out your backwards logic. Still waiting for what you would consider a proper alignment since minus my caster which I said was not in spec my numbers are in spec?

Enjoy your heavenly ride, I have to get back to my hoopty 2015 on stock UCAs.

 

Backwards logic? Now you're just making pointless statements lol.

One of these days you're going to realize there is a problem with your suspension setup and you're going to save your pennies and buy yourself a nice set of control arms and get a BETTER alignment(God forbid I use the word proper around you) and you're going to realize how good it feels to drive a safe, aligned truck.

The bottom line is your alignment is off and can't be aligned "WITHIN SPEC" and aftermarket control arms WILL without a doubt fix that PROBLEM. If you're ok with it than who fuckin cares? I don't, but don't go around telling people they don't need UCA's just because YOU don't care if your truck is aligned WITHIN SPEC.

Geezus.

 

But it is in spec minus caster and you do know what caster effects right? Thats the point. Dont go around telling people they cant get away with stock UCAs as if its the end all be all.

 

Ladies, you both have your panties in a twist. Just agree to disagree.

 

You keep saying "it is within spec...except for what isn't within spec"

Low caster sucks on the highway with your "wandering wheel at highway speeds" and positive camber isn't very desirable either lol.

 

The caster, do you need me to give you a lesson on what caster affects in regards to handling and suspension geometry?

 

I suggest you ask around because you obviously have no idea how your low caster is affecting your ride.
