Total Chaos coil bucket gusset question

Are the upper coil bucket tower gussets from Total Chaos compatible with JBA upper control arms? The Total Chaos website says "Compatible only with TC UCA's or L/T kits, not intended for use with factory control arms". Their shop is closed until July 18, so I can't currently ask them. But I assume they will say the same thing as their website. I'm sure someone has tried these on other aftermarket UCA's. So does anyone know if these weld on gussets work with JBA UCA's?

The only way that you couldn’t use them would be the mounts an your arms are larger than the total chaos arms and they would leave to much of a gap to weld.
You may have to do some grinding to get everything to line up, but I don’t see why you wouldn’t be able to use the kit.

Only one way to find out… Take it apart and check.

I just got mine installed

Its frame porn the non rust areas like to show off. We are thankful if are frames aren't rotted up let alone glossy shine. ;)

A little WD-40 and a rag and my frame's original paint looks great.

Not much Paint dosent exist on frames in the rust belt. Unless they were coated by previous owner from new. I would say only 2% of all them would have factory paint on them as good as this OP. About 90 to 95% of the 3rd gens are gone in our area.

It's just how it is in certain environments. If one is brought up from non rust area. They have to be coated with something to protect the steel. As they start rusting very quickly. My cousin brought up a honda crv from Mesa az and in a few years the bolts all started to rust.
