Eibach Pro-truck lift

Just wondering what the max caster is able to be obtained. I don't like wondering all over the road on the highway. I already bought the eibach kit, have not put it on. But I would rather do the UCA now when I have it apart but not crazy about how much they cost. Got the Eibach kit at black friday price and dang jba control arms are almost as much as the kit.

If you want your caster closer to 4* with the 2.5" the lift kit offers, then yes, you'll probably need UCA's. If you're ok with the caster being closer to 2*, then the stock UCA's will be fine.

Was such a great experience getting the install done at the factory! Thanks Ryan and Kevin for your hospitality!

[MENTION=173641]nimby[/MENTION] is right. Get caster to specs,which is closer to 4* aftermarket uca will make it happen and the best way to do it when you install full suspension at the same time. I know they’re not cheap, but I would look at JBA . Price, quality and costumer service are great. Just installed those 2 months ago and really happy with them. I mean you’ve got Eibach PRO kit, can’t go wrong with them just do it right first time and you’re will see the difference.

OK, I sucked it up and bought the JBAs. Thanks for your input.
 
9 out of 10 we install here do not get arms.

Hi Ryan & Kevin,

Thanks for the great deal on the Pro Truck lift kit. It has not yet been installed, and after reading I wanted to check the recommendation for UCA's. I have purchased new KYB top hats so whoever installs this, that should make the task easier (still thinking about the road trip to Corona, Kevin :thumb3:)

Truck will be used 95% street & highway and tires are 265/70 17 Wildpeaks and will not be going bigger..

When you get it done with the installation do 1st alignment. Get Toe, Camber in specs, caster will be @ high # 5+. Don’t worry, you drive at least 500-700 miles, let the shocks, springs settle. Then you can get your caster in specs. Good luck

If you go with the first clip and drive on the freeway 95% of the time the arms are really not necessary.

I should have my kit in today, will try to install it this weekend! I'll take some pics and let everyone know how it goes.

Opps, just noticed this is a 5th gen thread... Mine is a 06.
 
so how are you finding the handling? Kit without UCA's, is the highway handling noticeably different?

Big time handling change on the highway. I can take curves at speed.
The stock handling was horrible. Way too much body roll. Now it's nice and tight.
