SPC UCA

I didn't screenshot everything. The stuff I came across was anecdotal posts on FB and stuff I heard at truck meets. Their Amazon reviews aren't good either.

It's highly possible they're legit but i'll stay away from them.

 

The Moogs aren't any smaller. My Zones aren't on yet. I'm using my TRD rims for now and back spacing is over 6". Trying to decide if I want to go with Bora's so the Zone's will clear. Decisions....

 

Haven't come across that at all at least not with 2nd/3rd gen Tundras yet. Did quite a bit of research before I bought my Zones. I bought mine from a well known shop in Orem, Utah and they have installed plenty of Zone's on Tundras with no issues or complaints from customers. I don't use Facebook and certainly don't rely on Amazon reviews.

 

….some folks are forgetting that Mevotech is NOT the manufacturer. Mevotech is a customer of SPC and is based out of Canada. SPC, the manufacturer, told me that they will not provide direct customer support for Mevotech sold SPC's. The reason told to me is to protect the 4X4 shops that sell them such as ToyTec and Wheeler's where you will get full support from SPC I'm only repeating what was told to me Tuesday morning when I contacted SPC and talked to Bruce. I'm just the messenger here.

 

Got mine yesterday. One greaseable one Non greaseable. Oh well I am installing them!!! Now on to the Lift!

 

Really not sure what kind of customer service would be required for UCAs. I'd be more concerned needing customer service for such a simple part. Geometry and QC in production are what's important to avoid catastrophic failure or alignment issues, which SPC doesn't have issues with. Its very much a "set it and forget it" part, other than greasing them if you have the zerks.

 

True. Probably will ever need customer support, but buying direct or thru approved vendors here not only gets you support but gets you a matching pair apparently. The mere fact that Mevotech is willing to sell mismatched pairs with one side that seems to be the old stock non greaseable ball joints with newer, as in not newest, greaseable ball joints is not kosher in my book ...not wrong trying to save some money. I'm all for that. Not into not getting what I expected. Getting one side with a non greaseable ball joint and the other with a greaseable ball joint is laughable.

 

The pictures on Rock Auto show one is greaseable and one is not, they are not hiding anything. They are not sold in a pair they are sold individually.

 

Even more odd.

 

Yes, the pictures showed all! I knew exactly what I was getting. Thing is if you go to a 2019 Tundra on Rock Auto the SPC(mevotech) is not an option. I ordered mine based on a 2009 Tundra.

 

Just ordered the SPC tubular UCA's from Wheelers with 10% discount and free shipping.

 

What is the prom/coupon code? I was going to order SPC off JEGS with $20 off and it comes too just under $640. I rather not take any chances from a vendor and rather have both zerks. I'd also rather pay the extra $200 for support if needed for alignment issues or any other issues with SPC.
