Or maybe...just maybe....they're similar build quality and some really kind eBay retailer is selling them at a great price.

Any updates on these? Planning on bumping my 5100's up a couple notches and I might just do these at the same time.

Sorry haven't gotten on here to give updates. My brother just ran Tellico for a few days with them and never had an issue. No breaks, no squeaks, etc.

"4130 chromoly tubular upper control arms are 100% bolt on and hand crafted in the U.S.A.
UCA's are designed with added caster to aid in retaining factory alignment specs when aftermarket lift kits are installed. This reduces the darting or wandering in the vehicle's steering when 2.5"-3" lift kits are installed."

Yup. besides the sticker and gold bolt, I wouldn't be able to tell them apart. The ones in this pic also have the vertical gussets that TCs have, which are missing in the ebay pic.

In the (likely) case those Chinese arms use the old, non-stainless uniball, you can replace it with the new stainless version for about $45 each. Search for wssx16t.

I wonder what grade of stainless they use. I recently replaced mine, as the teflon liner was worn out, but no pitting on the uniball itself. The uniball and race are both plenty magnetic.
