Sweet affordable UCA's?

Thanks for sharing. That's def good to know.

 

I think you'll be ok with the backspace 6" is closer than 5. Stock wheels are +60 offset way closer to the ucas than 0. Unless your wheels are super wide.

 

AHHHHHH.....now that makes some sense! Thank you for your response!

 

I realize that this is an old thread but I wanted to chime in here. Seems a lot of people have a negative opinion of Zone Offroad UCAs.

I have been running them over a year without a single issue. I DO get off road quite a bit, and while I'm not crawling up or down rock walls or the like, I go over some pretty rough roads with big rocks, dips and ledges, etc. I have not had a single problem with my Zone UCAs nor have I heard about anyone else having a problem with them.

I have read a number of instances where SPCs have failed, and one of the techs at a local 4x4 shop also mentioned that he had personally seen a few SPC failures. Granted, the difference in verifiable instances of failure between the two brands may be due to the fact that SPC has a lot more UCAs out there so we see those failures more often.

I don't think Zone UCAs are "skimping." I'm not claiming they are TCs or Camburgs, but they're absolutely on par with SPC or JBA. They don't offer quite as much positive caster as the SPCs, but you shouldn't need more than 2° additional with a ~3" lift.

Just my 2¢

I am not a suspension or alignment pro by any means, but I have done a lot of reading and research about the different options out there. This opinion simply reflects what I came up with in that endeavor.

 

Wow.

 

I have had Tough Country, Total Chaos, and now Zone.

Tough Country = nope.

Total Chaos = , but I hate greasable bushings, and the UCA bolt is not
made to be loosened and torqued every time you grease...
Literally drop in, they adjust caster and camber, and not
too much caster(important).

Zone = , they are going to work fine for me, but they only add caster,
1 degree, I gained 2 degrees at 2.5” lift leaving me at 5 degrees,
not an issue, but 3 degrees suits me better. Camber still requires
darn near maxing out the alignment cams. They are beefy, well
constructed with above average welds etc., but by no means TC
quality. Full travel compression to droop with my set up, and
liking the oe no maintenance bushings. If I could buy TC with oe
style bushings I would right now.

Just my opinion.

 

For those looking for a ball joint UCA, JBA UCA's seem to be catching on with the Taco crowd.

Looks like they're good for up to a 3" lift for Tundra's, and go for $540 a pair.

 

@Toytec Lifts has this been your experience with TC UCA’s? I’m looking for UCA to run with factory 20’s on my 2018 with 3/1 level. 275/60 tires but next set will be 275/65 (same width)
