    I am having this issue with my 18 taco. I have 5100’s at 2.75 + 3in lift spacers. What is a good upper control arm to use so I don’t have this issue. Any suggestions???

    Damn! So you have a lift on top of a lift? Not sure if SPC will fix the issue :confused: but I may be wrong.

    Why are you stacking lifts? If you wanted that much lift, buy spindles.
