Haven't seen any feedback on these, but I like them a lot. Anyone using them?

Send It Suspension(R) Billet Upper Control Arms 2010+ 4Runner

[TRDHULK]

I guess no one is using them, but what do you guys think?

I like the adjustability where they mount to the body; will help me in the situation I'm in where my UCA's touch the spring at full droop.

I also like how there is rubber in the bushings where they mount to the body rather than being just metal like most billet UCA's

And I prefer the ball joint style for simplicity and reliability rather than a uniball that ALL other billet arms have.

Anything I'm missing? Any reason to avoid these?

They look almost identical to the ICON billet ones, besides the bushings and the ball joints, and for 1/2 the price. Its hard to tell the grade of material used but they don't look half bad!

These look like a really good design to me. I especially like the fact that they used a proper double threaded adjuster instead of having to remove the arm and then thread out a signal thread for each joint. Only thing I would change is to get rid of the heim joints and replace with rubber bushings. Rubber bushings significantly reduced the peak force on the joints and give you a much longer service life.

Were these made locally, or were they designed locally and fabricated off-shore?

What UCA are you currently using that’s making contact with the coil at full droop?
I have zero experience with these but I’m curious as well to how well they hold up. It may not be as sexy as the billet but my SPCs have held up to all sorts of abuse I’ve put them through.

I agree; nearly identical to Icon and Element.

They use a 6082 billet aluminum, which they claim is 10% stronger than the 6061 most companies use.

I noticed that as well; I like the design a lot. Seems well thought out.

The heim joints do seem to have rubber; almost like a hybrid heim joint, if thats even a thing.

Based on my conversation with them on Instagram, they are made here in USA; nearly built to order since they are such a small company. They advertise that they dont believe in profit....

I'm currently using Ironman 4x4, which are based on OEM design but with corrective caster. I have a 3" lift, so I'm thinking that is my problem

Honestly thats my only concern

What’s the old saying, if it’s too good to be true….

[Jeremy556]

You get what you pay for?

Billet UCAs are stupid to begin with. The UCA in this suspension design takes very little strength and half rolled sheet steel is way more than strong enough.

You couldn't pay me to have heims as the main UCA suspension pivot. This Chinese knock off shop has designed its own heim joints that use miniscule rubber bushings?

This right here.

While the price is tempting, I rather stick to the tried and true stuff. I don't want to be the beta tester when it comes to suspension components.
