I say definitely (and so does Toytec for their Aluma Series lift kits with 2”-3” of front lift).

Lots of threads on this forum debating this exact topic & diving deep into the pros/cons of keeping stock UCAs, different aftermarket options, etc. Grab some popcorn for light reading or as deep of a dive as you want…

Do the angles of stock UCAs with 2”-3” of front lift look weird? Absolutely (at least imo)

Can you get by without them? Possibly (but debatable). Plenty of folks on here have said their lifted rigs drive fine w/o them.

Will it be an extra pain in the a$$ to have to add them later if you can’t get a good alignment post lift? Absolutely. Lots of other folks have experienced this scenario.

Science and data aside - for me, if you’re not also getting new UCAs with a complete suspension lift to “do it right” just save a bunch of your $$ and get a much cheaper spacer lift installed to level things out.
