[QUOTE="ogdobber, post: 1227937, member: 22629"] Aftermarket UCAs won't solve any problems unless they are longer (that creates a whole new set of problems) because the shock travel down will still be the same amount. So if there weren't any limiting factors upper and lower would eventually fold down to flat. So you can see at a certain point you run out of room. With a 1.5 spacer the overall length is too long for the stock cv's. That additional length binds the cv and they get killed very quickly. With the gen2 shocks even longer than that the cv's wont be long for this world. There are aftermarket cv's that work in extreme angles (i think rcv?) But they are 3k+ So If you install the gen2 shocks you 100% need limiting straps. In 2wd you could drive forever, in 4wd 10 minutes or less the cv's are done Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro [/QUOTE]
