    I have a 2018 tundra sr5 with a 3/1 level kit and looking to get aftermarket upper control arms to get the alignment better and want to know what you suggest? I do not offroad if that matters

    Thanks in advance!

    Others will chime in but I think SPC uppers are going to be the cheapest.

    If you don't off-road, SPC is the cheapest option. I have the MCM, and TC is doing a group buy right now.

    Edit....... If you want them sooner than the group buy

    Thanks for the link!
    The problem im having is the front tires are toed in and I don't want the tires wearing as they are newer wheels and tires. Aftermarket upper control arms should correct that right? I have a 3" leveling kit installed

    Yes, they should. It also helps that the alignment shop knows what they are doing as well. @Toytec Lifts will get you set up!

    $539 to my front door. I could have bought the Total chaos or Camburg but there’s just more room for adjustment on the SPC uca. Want the best alignment possible.

    Part of my tax refund is going towards some SPC's. Actually built pretty tough and I like the adjustability.
