UCA: Light Racing

Is anyone on here running the Light Racin UCA? If so what are you impressions of them? Are they worth the money?

Alot of guys seem to run them. If you plan on getting them, fatbobsgarage has the cheapest price around.

I'm looking for a set as well, as long as my upper ball joints need replaced I might as well get some nice UCAs too. I'm looking at the All-Pros, the sound good and they sell replacement ball joints, grease zerks, powder coated... all positives in my book. Hard to know for sure what they're like until you run them for awhile though so it's going to be a gamble for me. Those Light Racing UCAs have a nice price on them though.

After reading some on All-Pro I think I'm going to pass on them. Thanks for the link, I think I may be giving the Light Racing ones a try.

If you call ToyTec and tell them FatBobs Garage's price they will match it.

I have the LR UCA's and love them. If at any point you ever need to replace the ball joints ToyTec sells the replacements for $11-12 each.

Yes, I'm running them. I picked up an 01 2.7 4wd Taco a little over a year ago with very low miles, but it was all stock. I went with Toytec coilovers up front along with the LR UCA's because I wanted to make sure I could dial everything in perfectly. I was totally impressed with them and have been running them for about 6 months with no issue.

I liked them so much I ordered another set and they are on my 4Runner.

I too used Fat Bob's. They shipped super fast and was quite a deal. If I knew Toytec price matched I would have gone there.

Also - The LR UCA's have a replaceable ball joint just like the Allpros. This concerned me as I was not going to drop that much money for something I cannot rebuild/replace. Since it is not documented well anywhere I called and it was verified they can be replaced.

I just got LR UCAs from Fat Bob's, should be putting them on the new frame next week. They look nice so far, I'll see how they perform after driving with them.

I"m a lazy shopper. Probably somewhere cheaper, but I ordered for my Taco and 4R at the time:
