    Is that so? I got the plates from relentless and had a local shop do it. Was told the UCAs were at its limits as far as adjustments go so nothing could be done. I’ll have to look into more. Thx!

    The alignment shop is not in the business of worrying about the tire rubbing, they just need to make sure the caster, toe and camber are within ideal spec. I don’t see how an alignment guy would be able to try and fix the tire hitting a body mount

    Chuck, do you guys have Firestone on your neck of the woods? They do right by me for alignments and I paid under $200 for lifetime alignments on my truck.. so I get an alignment every year whether I need it or not.

    Aaron, yes we do but some of them don't have the right machine to hook on to certain aftermarket wheels/tires but with that being said there are quite a few of them close by and that is what I think I'm going to do is go there and buy the lifetime alignment. With that being said not sure if I had it done now with the stock arms if they would include it after I changed out the arms or even maybe thinking of doing the same kit that you have ?

    They should honor the lifetime alignments based on vehicle, I'll bet it doesn't matter which UCA'S you have our don't have. In fact unless you pointed it out to them they wouldn't even know.

    Interesting thing said to me from the local 4x4 shop in Ft Collins when I was in requesting informati I'll n on lifts. They did not recommend the Total Chaos because they said they have issues wth them having to be readjusted all the time. Not sure if this is true, just thought I would share their input.

    Total chaos are great. I have them on my truck for the last 8 years. Camburg on last truck. Both top notch both aligned perfect every time

    I have the Zone UCA’s, not sure why they aren’t more popular for the mostly street driving crowd. From what I can remember the Zone uses a standard Moog ball joint you can get from any automotive store, the SPC was their own design that would need to be special ordered. I put over 20k miles a year on my truck, the Zone gave me a good alignment and easy to replace ball joints.

    I like the way your username is spelled. Caught my attention right away. Anyway I've had the zone UCA's for the last 20-25k miles for off-road and Street driving. The alignments are a go every time the first time. Have yet to replace the Moog ball joint. They're super beefy, solid AF!
