Quick question about upper control arms.

[ClassicJoe]

Need advice asap in case I need to cancel my order...

I installed 2" leveling struts and ordered new UCAs, but I just noticed that they say for a 3" lift.

Do I need to order different UCAs, or will they work with the 2" leveling struts?

Which UCAs did you get ...

Which UCAs? I have the Zone UCAs and they are for up to 3'' of lift but yours may be different.

You'll be fine with those.

Yeah, it looks like the truck sits a tad higher anyways, so hopefully it will work out.

They will work even if you got 2" even lift. They will make the vehicle feel a lot better riding than those who go with the OE replacement ones at the same lift, Why ? simple geometry. Most aftermarket UCA's have a built in offset that helps correct caster/camber after lift so the BJ gets positioned at a more neutral stance after the lift and the BJ can move more freely as the suspension cycles up/down without any binding. You can also ask your alignment guy/gal to set your caster 1-2* higher than factory and get you towards the 5* range which will help when offroading/fitting larger tires with less chances of rubbing at the back seams.
