FJ/5100 issues with UCA?

I've been sitting here researching for nearly 4 hours, so I'm just going to ask it..

This is a piggy back question from my other post...http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/253407-so-fed-up-my-4runner-please-help.html

Q. If I do the FJ/5100 .85 setup to get new shocks on the truck, am I going to run into any alignment issues due to the slight lift in front? Apparently my Daystar lift might be causing issues with UCA height. I want to make sure I won't have that issue with the FJ coils and 5100s at .85 setting. I DO NOT want to have to deal with new UCAs or other components. Money is tight at the moment but I've got to get my truck back into good working order before my Duratracs wear too bad to sell..

Thanks for the help, I am absolutely overwhelmed and just want my truck back to comfortable, stable, safe, dependable daily driver status...

It's hard to say if you'll run into any issues getting the alignment in spec or not. Taking a guess on estimated height, you should be OK but every vehicle is different. You could try it and if it doesn't work out, drop it down.
 
Nope. I am running that set up and love it. Installed it 3 years ago I think and had it aligned then. It has held the alignment perfectly for 60k plus miles.
 
running the same moog fj springs and bill at 0.85, stock uca.
let the tech know to get the caster close to 3. if he can get more than 3 its good. i was also thinking of changing uca, but my truck is pretty much pavement.
