    I've been running those coilovers for 4 years, stock UCA's. Only had 1 3/4" lift dialed in. No problems at ALL which is a miracle, since I have over 1000 lbs extra weight with TAG bumper, sliders, full skid plates, camper shell, double battery, etc. It has compressed down to 1 1/4" lift, which is not surprising. Never dialed it back up, so it's a soft ride. Leaf springs are flat even w. AAL. About to replace them w. OME 886 setup & dakars to handle the weight, The ToyTec will be for sale soon.

    How bad do you think the ride would be if I set it at full height and put new uca's

    those fancy toy tec coil overs are NOTHING more than 5100's with eibach springs and an adjustable collar and a fancy top hat with a STUPID high price tag.

    You can get the Bilstein 6112's for cheaper pretty much anywhere and have a MUCH better shock AND they come with coils too...

    That all depends on the weight you have added (or will add) to the truck. If you don't have a lot of extra, the ToyTec kit will be great. I think the UCA's are a necessity with 3" lift. Even at less than 2" they had a heck of time getting halfway decent caster dialed in without them, and it was less than I wanted. The SPC Light Racing UCA's would work just fine, and have a much better price point than the Total Chaos UCA's.
