My dad's UCA bushings are shot, the whole axle tilts forward and back. I've got some questions about the replacement...

1. He has a RC 4.5" lift w/ longer LCAs. Should he get UCAs made for that much lift or are stockers fine?

2. Do stock replacements come with axle bushings?

3. What are some good, affordable aftermarket arms? They need to be fairly cheap, my step mom was just diagnosed with breast cancer so money's tight right now.

TIA

 

I have about 4.5" of lift with stockers and it works just fine. Stock replacements more than likely won't come with axle bushings, just depends where you buy them from. You can get the bushings here (cheaper than anywhere else I've seen):

You can get 2 from IRO for the price of 1 at NAPA.
EDIT: **Just kidding, I just saw that it says "Price is per bushing" on IRO, which is about the same as NAPA**

And I also got IRO's adjustable upper arms, for just under $200. I'm pretty sure that'll be about the price of all aftermarket ones so if money is tight, I'd just go with stock.

Sorry to hear about your step mom though man. I hope she can power through it

 

The new arms do not come with the axle end bushings.

 

She'll be fine. She was lucky enough that she had a reduction done and that's when they found it. It's a weird strain that will never show up on a mammogram, but at this point there's a 100% survival rate. She's scheduled for a double mam in June so, it's all good. Except for my 4 year old brother who's obsessed with ***** lol, he's sad.

 

Hahahaha man that's hilarious about your brother.

I'm glad to hear that she is going to be okay though. That's great news
