I have a '16 rcsb that I'm going to throw stock size duratracs on and bilsteins at 1.4. I want some rake but not as much as I have. How safe is the stock uca at 1.4?

They say the stock UCAs are good to 2.1, others say 2.8, but either way you should be fine at 1.4. I replaced mine when I did the 2.1 but only because it was only (2) extra bolts per side and took 15 minutes.

I set mine at 1.4 and the ball joint angles top and bottom look good to me. Same with the cv joint angles. 1.4 gives the truck the right amount of rake if you ask me. Had it set like this for only 2000km so time will tell.

I'm thinking of bumping mine to 1.4 myself for looks purposes

Can you guys post some photos of your trucks at 1.4 if you don't mind?

Thanks for the insight. As always pics of setups at 1.4 are welcome!
