    Every one I have seen has hit the CO's, if they are running a 2.5" CO. If running a 2", then it shouldnt hit.

    They dont hit when sitting still. When you jack the front, or they droop, they contact the spring.

    The only thing that would lead you to think they wouldnt hit, is if the Uni falls between the coil winds at droop....

    Would the TC 1" uniballs be better than? Do the 1.25" burgs hit their coilovers?

    yeah, but light racing UCA's do nothing for performance. they only allow for proper alignment when lifted. they still use the stock ball joint, are not make from chromoly (like TC) or billet (like Icon) and offer no extra strength or wheel travel

    maitenance isn't a big deal with a uni-ball UCA, just keep the uni-ball and bushing clean and you're good to go.

    realistically, you get way more for your money when you buy TC or Icon UCA's, sure they are more money, but they are light much much better than stock and LR

    Camburg's website says close to 11" of wheel travel when used with their uni-ball UCA's. That's a crap load of travel with out hitting the coils? Anyone know if the coils are digressive like Icon?

    I think they are.

    Yeah, I dont know about that. The travel is going to be determined by the length of the CO's as well..

    pretty much everybody i know of has had to put a limit strap on their suspension when running ext. travel CO's and the camburg 1.25" UCA... i dont know why camburg made those because at full droop the UCA hits the coil

    stick with a 1" uni-ball
