UCA Angle

It’s 100% removable. Problem is the rusty bolts holding it on, but hopefully no issues there. If it’s a daily driver, anyway. If not, then worst case it sits in the driveway for a few days.

The bigger issues are CV boot contact, UCA contacting the spring which I’m sure it must with that setup, and poor alignment.

 

Good alignment, doesn’t lean left or right but has some body roll in the corners. Not sure if that’s related

 

One issue I do have is that when I’m in 4wd and at full lock I get a popping/knocking sound. most likely the cv?

 

Most likely.

 

before I got ucas I was lifted at 3 inches and had my caster in spec. Truck drove fine. I would either take the spacer out or leave it and go find a competent shop to do your alignment.

 

Angle looks pretty harsh, any opinions?

 

You can see in the picture where the inner CV boot is rubbing, You can see the line it is leaving.

 

Is this the line your talking about?

 

Yes

 

Honestly its not as bad as I expected though

 

Maintenance sheet said cv boots were replaced just before I bought it, makes sense.
Gonna be a huge pain in the ass to take those out though. Considering I don’t have any wondering and the click only happens at low speeds at full lock in 4w I think I might wait to take them out.

 

I would be just as concerned with all that rust, fluid film and a wire brush would work well.
