Bilstein finally steps to the plate…

These look great! Did not know which route I wanted to go with my build going in. But having Bilstein on my last few builds (all F150s) I think they are going to win my business again. It is hard to beat their price and performance. Im definitely a fan of some of the other brands, but hard to justfiy the price (for me) when Im just putzing around.

Are the Bilstein UCAs adjustable for off set from the factory to accommodate lifted alignment? The factory description hints they do but is a vague comment on the wed site.
As far as we know the SPCs are the only adjustable UCAs to properly adjust alignment when lifted.

You can probably base the Bilstein UCAs off of what Dirtking has for their 4130 UCAs. The DKs are designed for lifted suspension and add caster. The two UCAs look to be very close in design with the bilstein 4130s being a bit more premium looking imho. Compared to the DirtKings, the Bilstein UCAs look like they added added gussets, they appear to use the same probearing bushings but have a higher spec’d probearing balljoint.

@Area 51 they are fixed control arms no adjustability, the castor is the only item that can be changed with shim thickness at the bushings. FWW Dobinson's are adjustable as well (each arm can be extended or retracted on the UCA when installed) so adjustable Castor and Camber, but you have to reuse the OEM ball joints.

Edit: they have updated their arms and they now come with Probearing Pro 4 series ball joints installed.
