Suspension Question (UCA's & AAL)

[lbishop]

Got my revolver shackles in the other day, and decided to go ahead and pull the trigger on everything else... (tax return is coming in)

1st up is the UCA's

* I know the rancho it isn't best lift for the 1st gen but any issues with these control arms anybody knows of?

* Any drawbacks?

* These seem to be the ones a lot of people go with, any drawbacks to these?


As far as the aal goes, I think im gonna go with this one, plus the smallest leaf out of the stock pack

I swapped out Rancho's for AC's. I still have the Rancho's but Dave had/has first dibs. Remember you still have to get the BJ's and make sure they are greasable.. Only issue I remember about Calmini was the powdercoating.

AC's are the best, had mine for few moths now the are solid, the powder coat is great

I plan on going with AC but just out of curiosity, why did you swap?

the ranchos on my first first gen, all the bushings would squeak none stop actually the whole rancho kit did, only problem i've had with them, the ac's i have on now are nice though. pretty easy install too. i got them not coated and did it myself.

Thanks. I had heard the rear flex with the Rancho kit was less than stock but hadn't heard anything about the rest of the kit.

If I were to buy new Id buy Calmini.. The ball joints are pretty common if I remember right
