they should look sick when you get them in.

is the upper ball joint more prone to wearing out with larger tires vs. the lower? no solution for the lowers?

And I'm pretty sure you can leave the coilover in.
I remember that guy! He got flamed pretty bad, IIRC.

How and when did I get flamed? isn't there a super duty link here you should be hanging out in?

I remember. Your upper ball joints kept going out for some unknown reason.

Really because Ive never had one go out on me, I replaced mine when I did my lift, but one never went out. Its almost like someones trying to write a book about me but is making stuff up as they go.

Yeah, online forums are bad about that. It's the price we pay for being lifers.

Those look awesome Captain! Hopefully you don't plan on making your F150 fly. Just ask extremeethan how that turned out!

what is the advantage of these UCA's vs the stockers?

I remember something about about a 6k lb truck + air = bad landing...but I'm too lazy to do the search for it...

they are much stronger then the stock ones. any lift company that makes a lift for tires bigger than 35's should include them(but rize doesnt). with 37's your ball joints in you UCA wear very fast like captains did, and you wont be able to hold an alignment they run them on trophy trucks for a reason.

LOL .. Man you sure love to dog on Rize dontcha? Big deal they don't come with a UCA. Just like the CST they also come with a damn spacer instead of a longer coilover, thats not too good for offroading. The stock UCAs are completely fine for a daily driver that sees some offroading. We can all agree that Captain doesn't do a "little" offroading, he romps on that truck so of course the UCAs are going to go out fast. Yes the new UCAs will help that immensely. But like I said unless you plan on BEATING your truck, it's a waste of money.
