1st Gen UCA Options

Im looking to build my 1st gen Taco and I’m looking for a little insight on all the UCA options. I don’t want anything super extreme. Im just looking to run some ICON coil overs to get about 2.5” of life and saw that that requires aftermarket UCAs. I’ve explored a couple options like JBA and ICON, but I’m kinda confused as to the differences between the ball joint, Uniball, and delta joint. Anyone have some insight and/or any other brand options that has worked for y’all??

 

Low maintenance, lower cost, go with SPC's latest UCA via RockAuto.

Don't forget to use the coupon code.

 

Thanks Brother glad you said it.

 

Do they still use those updated SPC bushings though?

I know they had a new revised version as of last year?

 

Damn Skippy

 

There were photos floating around of the Mevotech UCA's that are identical to the bottom pic (SPC).

I recall the raised edges.

But again what I remember could be useless if Mevotech is using the top picture as they current design.

There was a post about someone ordering a set of arms, where one was the most recent (shown in your bottom pic) and an older variant (not shown in either of your pics).

 

Don't buy any junk already listed here. Get the best in the market and you won't worry about the quality. Total Chaos UCA's.

I’m quite satisfied with my JBA UCA. I already really like the red lol.

 

Far from the best so not end thread unfortunately.

 

This is my set up going on next week, is it the best nope. There is no best, it's what works best for the individual who wants it. I am a New Englander. and a Uni Ball UCA in the Salt Belt is not a good idea as it won't last long. There are a lot of other better choices out there than TC UCA's

 

Thanks John, just love fan boys that because they say it's the best we all should think that. I have had JBA 2 times now and had no issues with them except the powder coating flaking off, and the rusting Ball Joint tops which Marlin replaced for free for everyone. Had SPC 2 times and both times sucked before they made some great changes, even had Camburg which were complete junk. Now Dirt King as I have yet to see or hear any negatives about them.

 

Thats great except that this is the 1st gen section and dirt king unfortunately doesnt sell anything for our truck

 

Correct but there are many options but TC was my point.

 

No issues but those sound like issues. I've bought TC once and have had ZERO issues. Total Chaos > jba junk

 

Another vote for Total Chaos.

 

Yeah kind of pointless for him to be posting here tbh.
