Sorry, Another UCA Question

[Saddlerocker]

Does tire size come into play when considering the need for UCAs?

For example a 3"+ lift should have new UCAs from what I gather.
So if do a 2" level with adjustable struts and went from 32" tires to 34" does that come into play? Taking me closer to that 3" threshold?

No, tire size with not change UCA or ball joint angles.

The stock UCAs have more clearance than a lot of the aftermarket ones.

Sorry, I mean does the tire size contribute to the ball joint angle

Tire size has zero effect on ball joint angle

Mopars 2" lift requires new UCAs also. Many aftermarket companies 2" lifts also come with UCAs. I think 2" is the thresh hold you are asking about. As previously stated, tire size is irrelevant.

Thanks everyone.
I have had rear 5100s and the B12 springs in the garage for nearly a year waiting for the front 5100s.
Now that I got them, im debating if I want to do 1.3" in front and leave the rear alone, or 2.1" and lift the rear the 1".
Guess I'll look for Mopar UCAs from their 2" lift if I decide to do the 2" level in front.

Good call. They are supposed to be stupid cheap, like $50 a piece.
