    Welcome from CO. +60?? Any possible clearance issues? Maybe not. Just curious if a +60 offset is doable without some trimming on something. Like I said, maybe not. Don't really know.

    I was going to recommend Light Racing/SPC UCA's price wise, which I want, but there are a lot (A LOT) of negative reviews coming out recently with the SPC's which is causing me to seriously reconsider not getting them. I need to upgrade from my stock UCAs and want to spend my money wisely. Camburg may be the way to go or Total Chaos although more pricey.

    Some Mods :) See build thread for details
    TC stainless steel uniball is my vote. Swapping my non-installed LR UCAs for the TCs plus difference.

    Yeah i heard that uniball is the best way to go but from what i read they need a little maintenance to not get the noise they make

    What size of tires you have? Does having tje camburg ucas let you run bigger tires or 295s will be to close to the uca

    Might be alright but depends on how much lift you get with the Kings... My buddy just put 295/70/18 sst pros on with about 2 3/4" of lift with +18 wheels and he had to do cab mount chop and trim some of the fender also.

    My foxes are set at 2 1/2" and my 35's say on bfg's website they are 34.5". Had to trim inside the fender the plastic in the wheel well covers it up so you can't tell but had to do it. My wheels are -12 offset also which makes a difference also.

    Factory ball joints are tough. I can no doubt do without upgrading my UCAs, but to get the best alignment, better geometry, an upgrade is in order.
