Old man emu UCA

Does anyone have any experience with the new ome upper control arms that just came out? I'm between the JBA and the ome ones.

 

I do not. however, the JBA have been around for a long time, are proven, made in the USA and backed by some phenomenal customer service

 

This ^^^^^!!! And I have JBAs. Zero issues.

 

I’m installing a set right now, but I’m not finished with the project (suspension, gears, and lockers) so I can’t really report anything except they appear to be very well made.

Can we get a full review with the BP51s and UCAs! That's the setup I'd like to go with next.

 

slightly off here but my spc uca's have been great

 

That my friend is a really sweet setup you have being installed there. Let me know when you get to test those OME UCAS

 

I just recently installed these and got a fresh set of duratrac 285/75/r16 mounted up. Wondering if my alignment numbers need to be tweaked or not. So far drives great but worry that rubbing may occur. No CMC and didn't have rub issues with same setup but with stock UCA (though camber was out and caused some outside tire wear). Lift is OME 885 with trim and top plate spacers. Dakar leafs

 

It's ok for stock arms.

The tech didnt understand that ideally 3.5 caster for big tires is good.

Also the camber should be positive. Some techs shoot for 0 camber some reason. You can see the spec is 0.6 and they dropped it down.

It's balanced and green, no tire wear concerns. But not ideal for driving in my opinion.

 

Was having some issues rubbing so had the shop do another alignment. So far so good, Final numbers 3.0 for caster, +.1 camber, .07 toe
