Total Chaos UCA how-to Install

I just got finished with the LR upper control arm install. On the driver's side, remove the two 10mm bolts at the top of the fender well. Those hold the fuel lines in place. Once the nuts are removed, you will have enough play in the lines to move them aside and put the long bolt in backwards.

 

If I do 5100s with eibachs up front set at .85 and rear 2" aal will I need to go with the uca's at some point? Are the tc uca's better than the light racing ones from toytec? Thanks.

 

Thanks Chris. Wanting to keep factory rake. Only have three leaves in rear. If I do eibachs and 5100s at .85 what aal should I get in rear? Thanks again Tacoma God.

 

That would get you at least +2-1/2" in the front.

Apparently you have the non-TSB spring (2+1) 2 leaves, 1 overload.
I would go with the 2" AAL from ToyTec for non-TSB to keep the rake.

 

U will need uca's with 5100 and .85 eibachs. That's what I am running.

 

Any vibes or wandering with your settup?

 

not necessarily. i am running the same setup and i have stock UCA's and no problems.

 

Alignment report, please.

 

if i had my numbers i would be more than happy to share them. the last time i got an alignment was october and they didn't give me my numbers and i wasn't educated enough at the time to ask for them lol

 

Generally they can't get your caster in spec without aftermarket UCA's.
If you're rig doesn't wander or bump-steer, then you beat the odds.

 

i must have beat the odds then. i don't wander lol or bump-steer

 

You won't lol when you're in the ditch.

 

the only time my truck will see a ditch is when i am pulling somebody out of one!
























jesus i hope i didn't just jinx myself

 

Fawk, I'm glad I don't have your Karma !

 

it's not necessarily my karma...it is usually just me opening my mouth too soon.





oh wait, that is karma isn't it?

 

Do the tc uca's come ready to install? Wheelers reads as if you gotta order ball joints bushings etc. Can someone clarify? Thanks.

 

It should come with all bushings and hardware needed. You are talking about the uniball set up though right? It doesnt use a ball joint on top anymore and it will come with the uniball already pressed in

 

Great write up! Subd
