    Cool.

    Make sure the joints are well greased and I would spray some dry teflon or silicone on the Uniball to get rid of any noise. I did that and it works perfect. I bought the Dupont Dry Teflon Spray at Lowes. That is for the Uniball only.

    Thanks for the help. These will ship to me Friday, so I'll tackle it next week. If it only takes a couple of hours like Greg said. I am a little less mechanically able, so I'll double his time.

    They do not have a website that is up right now but they are building it. Contact James and he can give you a brief history of them. I have been running them for a while now one trails and no issues. They are quality and would compare them to Total Chaos.

    Tri, I see you have the king coilover's. What would you guys think is the best coilover lift system? I need to get rid of this top spacer. I don't really want to go with the 5100's, because I will just end up changing them out anyway and I don't want to waste my money. I saw that OME has a real nice setup. Currently I am leveled out in the front, with and 1.5 AAL in the rear. I guess that would be about a 3" lift in the front, So I would need to keep that. Let me know your thoughts, I want to do it right.

    Brian I love my kings. New they are on the expensive side but to me they are well worth it. I personally would save up for a coilover. I was going to get 5100s but figured I would be upgrading anyways to Kings so I decided to get the kings instead. Plue I got a killer deal on these that were only used on the street for less than 6 months.

    I would stay with the Big 3, King, Icon and Fox.

    If you want to go cheaper I would say OME or Toytec Ultimate Lift

    and cheaper than that 5100s all around with stock coils.

    All are great set ups and way better than stock.

    For the rears get an Add-A-Leaf from Toytec to give it a little lift.

    I talked to James today, he said that the UCA's are shipping out today. I ordered mine about 2 weeks ago. He told me that the last bunch he received had bad powder coating so he sent them back.

    Should be here soon.

    It happens, i know James and he would not ship out a shitty product so if it had powder coat issues he would make sure they are fixed.

    Glad to hear they are on their way.
