Make sure to get an adj. upper control arm if you are lowered and I know Coast says reset the pinion angle to 0 degrees. I have the Eibach pro kit and had the fixed upper control arm and am getting a vibration at about 85 mph. Contacted Coast and they say it is a MUST to change the pinion angle. It will save you a big time hassle and worry.

No, mine is the spyfershaft. Maybe I'll take the bolts out and use the next set of holes.

Adj LCA's are no the same thing as a UCA but you can do the same thig with them. You just have to adjust both LCA's the same amount to keep the axle square.

I know LCAs aren't the same as an UCA, LOL.

What I ment was adj LCAs can adjust the pinion angle to so a adj UCA should not be needed.
DeStonn you don't agree with that?
Who agrees or disagree with this and why?
Thanks.

You can adjust your pinion angle either way. Adj. LCAs or Adj. UCA.
