- In todays video I address a very common question that i get!
Does your silverado/sierra have stamped steel upper control arms and if so do you need to replace them when you do a leveling kit!

I have to say, I bought a white Silverado because I have been following your page. Love the truck, great job.
Great video! We appreciate your business.
Summit Racing that works for 2 wheels drive 2018 Silverado 1500???
I have a 8” bds suspension lift on my 2015 Chevy 1500 4x4 and my angles are exactly like stock. Bds makes one of the best lifts! Running 37” aturro trail blade mts’s and 22x12 rims -51. Now for an exhaust and front and rear bumpers!
I got a 7" Rough Country drop diff lift kit with their new forged UCAs and they don't touch my front coil springs at full droop even when the trucks on a lift for oil changes. Highly recommend them, RC is making good stuff now 4Wheel Parts professionaly installed mine. ;)
Running the 3.5 RC Knuckle kit on my Chevy, same wheel & tire set up as well. Only about 5000miles on it but absolutely leaves all the angles great and have had amazing luck with it. Still running SS upper control arms also.
Holden Fairfield this is perfect! I have a 2018 sierra and was wondering if the RC 3.5 knuckle kit was good!!
Connor Bain definitely a solid option. If you’re looking to do the same wheel & tire trimming may be needed so they don’t rub
Love the roof rack man
Just bought the Readylift UCA's on Amazon last week for $336. Putting them on this weekend with the Motofab 3" front spacers and 2" rear blocks.
Are the new control arms good?
I have a 3 inch Motofab level on my 2012 Ford F-150 and it broke both of the boots on the control arms. Just got the freedom Offroad 2-4 inch lift uppers and they’re getting out on right now
Do you happen to know the part number to replace the ball joints in the upper control arm?
I would like to advice everyone if u have any level or lift with stamped upper arms, upgrade to beefier and better aftermarket control arms. The ball joint on mine popped out the arm while i was driving. Stabilitrak and all kinds of lights w/ steering came on. Luckily nothing bad happened because i was only going 15 mph and was able to make it home. And all the lights corrected itself after i replaced the part. Please take the advice lol
What do u recommend for the brand and do they take lower control arms too ?
David Estrada you should be fine with keeping the lower control arms stock. Its the upper ones that are a problem due to the angle. Any aftermarket ones will do pretty much. I got the readylift ones like in the video. Cheap on amazon.
Cool so he mentions the motofab ones he will try out are specifically made for a 21/2”-3” level kit , is this also recommended for a 6” lift kit or any lift in general ?
David Estrada i would recommend for any type of lift. I personally have a 6.5” on mine
Ok thank u for the advice one last question lol will removing the bump stops cause any other wear on other suspension components
Tell Motofab we need some upper control arms for the new 2019/2020 silverados that match up with their 2.5-3 inch leveling kit👌🏻
In the mean time would you please do anther dirt road chronicles?...Really liked the two that you done :)
I had mine pop out while driving and had it covered under factory warranty. Shop said my truck was the 6th truck that’s came in for upper control arm repair
Which would you prefer on UCA READY LIFT OR MOTOFAB? For a 2.5 in level?
I had a 3" motofab with stamped steel and in 3 months balljoint popped and the arm was shot, went to cognito and fixed all the issues
Are you running the cognito 110-90293 upper control arms?
I have a 3” Motofab leveling kit with ready lift upper control arms... what offset did u go with so there’s no rubbing or anything.
im 5'11 doing 3 inch level kit and upgraded upper control arm. is it gonna be so tall do you have side by side of stock and leveled. how tall are you?
did you use a ratchet wrench to tighten the upper control arm to the knuckle?
I see you cut out your bump stops. Does the new motofab UCAs require you to cut out bump stops?
So I’m looking to buy the same 3inch leveling kit do u think I should wait for the one that’s coming out that u were talking about
So i have these too with the 2.25 level. Only 21k miles on them and the ball joints are loose and knocking. Readylift is sending me new ball joints. Has anyone replaced them with higher quality ball joints?
If I get a 3.5 inch RC lift, will I need to upgrade my control arms for my 2017 Silverado?
Did you cut those upper control arm bump stops off?
What's the rim sizes n tire size you running, do you think you can fit 35 12.50 .24 on that set up
Have you updated the front struts or shocks if so what would you recommend. Got a 3.5 superlift on my 15 Silverado and the ride is definitely a lot rougher.
did you get struts off so what kind with the spacer lift
What wheel bearings should I get have a 17 silverado 1500 runnkng 14x33 wheels and a 3” level
So did the shop have any issues realigning it? Mine goes in this week for a alignment.
Nope
Did these control arms work on a 3 inch level kit? They say they only are made for and tested on 2.25
yes
Where did you get your tail lights????
i changed mine to the aliminium arms with my 9 inch mcgaughys 2016 silverado
I blew 2 upperballjointz on my 2011 Silverado 4 inch ready lift sst it was the old kit with shotty baljoints tho
Dave Bernie hi Dave ! Quick question, what ball joints did you replace them with ?
Beautiful freakin truck man!
No the biggest you can got is 3 in on top of the strut and 2 in spacer on the bottom of the strut so that would be 5in total of lift out of combined level kit. So $420 on ctrl arms and $200 on the level kit., At that point you mine as well get a 4-6 in suspension lift which is only a couple hundred dollars more
if you're going to do double spacers might as well do a strut lift too and just explode the front upon install lol the cheapest 6" is going to cost you 1k and require cutting and a install the most aren't comfortable doing. So then you have to add labor for a shop to install it. Like myself some don't want to lift our trucks that high.
Kyle B can you run the added spacer on the bottom with a aftermarket upper control arm with no problems?
@@jacobcollins7407 Ive been running top and bottom spacers with stock control arms with over 14k miles on a 2018 silverado with zero issues
Holy shit that sounds like a bad idea. I'm known to make bad decisions and even I wouldn't combine a 2 inch spacer with a 3 inch spacer lol. I have a 2 inch level on my 2015. I'd like to install a lift on it but I'm not sure how I feel about cutting up such an expensive truck.
Just waiting for my warranty to expire.
Not going to kill a 100k
6year bumper to bumper over a lift kit.
Once the warranty is over,
It's game on
Marc Aliventi Aliventi you can level without voiding warranty
I read the fine print, no can do..
If I put the lift on ,it voids ANY work for the front end of the truck..
I can wait
I will have everything ready to go
Shocks springs upper control arm.
Tires
Marc Aliventi Aliventi lame dealership mine respects the warranty as long as they install the parts
I love the videos broo
Order on amazon they’re 310 at least they were when I got mine
I replaces mine on stock wheels and now I'm rubbing when I turn
Need a half inch wheel spacer
My ocd does not care for that rake.... front is too high.
Quesnel British Columbia, Canada
4.56 and e85 tune
on the list lol
Can you still clear factory rims with these UCA?
I have the same upper control arms on a 2.5 inch level and am running the factory 17 inch rims. I have not experienced any rubbing at full lock.
