When I spoke with a tech at Bilstein earlier this week, he said they tested their 5100s with stock components including UCAs and there were no issues. He mentioned that they probably stuck with 1.8” as the highest because much higher could create problems with stock components (some of their 5100s for certain trucks go up to 2.5-2.75”) Trying to think through it logically, as long as the 5100 shock stops the downward travel I don’t think a ball joint could pop out of the stock UCA... but if the UCA contacting the bump stop is what’s stops the downward travel and the shock and weight of the tires/wheel is trying to push the wheel down further, I could see how the ball joint would be popped out (more like pulled out). Does that sound like sound reasoning? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone install 5100s on the 1.8” setting and have any regrets? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

May also take a look at readylifts UCAs. Seem a bit cheaper but we’ll made Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For all the guys with 17+ trucks with stamped steel upper control arms... are you using the facorey UCA or replacing them with aftermarket UCAs? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a black cloth center seat out of a 2019 LD (2018 body style). I would trade someone for a center counsel or buy it from you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Guys with stamped steel UCAs, have you been replacing the UCAs with the bilstein loft shocks? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good looking truck... what are the specs on the level kit and tires/wheels? Looks like you do use it off-roading, did you replace the factory upper control arm or keep it stock? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
