SPC upper control arm thoughts?

Has anyone started a thread on their exchange program? I personally haven't seen one.

 

Is no one going to mention the big ass crack in the 2nd photo of the original post? I wouldn't run it like that but do your thing man. I have a set of the same ones on my truck. They've been on for almost 2 and a half years and so far so good. I do grease them regularly.

 

What crack?

 

Yeah I don’t see any crack either :/

 

haha ok I can’t tell if my eyes are playing tricks on me now. Is that not a crack? Or is it the glare off the weld bead? I looked at it like 5 times before I replied but now I’m questioning it. Maybe I just need to get off the computer and go for a walk.

 

I'm pretty certain that's just a shadow. OP would've noticed a crack of that magnitude. Or so I would hope.

 

new ones installed. you'll love'em once you get'em!

 

Buy a set of new bushings off wheelers or ebay. Mine squeeked bad after about 100k miles. Got rid of alot of play and clunk too.

 

Can you explain why? Or cite where you got the info from, putting my new ones on soon and just want to read up on it.

 

This has all the info on settings.

So knowing where you're currently at, or where you want to be will help.

 

What was the turn around time on this?

 

I am lucky and live really close to them, I had my new ones in a few days. Still need to swap out the old ones and send them back.

 

It only took my 3 days, I’m in California

 

I received that with my ucas, was just curious where you read Tacoma’s call for +1.0 caster

 

Oh I have no idea where that guy got it from. I think the youtube video they have posted said D was the most common setting? I dunno. Like I said, see where your caster numbers are at now then add an appropriate amount for your situation based on that chart.

 

Oh snap they’ll send new ones before you take out the old ones? How much proof did you have to send them?

 

None, they charge you the full amount for the new control arms ($629) and once they receive your old ones, they credit back $429 so you only pay $200 for the control arms.

 

I believe you have 90 days to get the old ones sent back.

 

Did they ask for proof of purchase/receipt? Did the purchase have to come from an authorized spc reseller? I wouldnt mind partaking in this trade in program.
