HELP-INSTALLED SAS SUSPENSION WITH LEVELING KIT ON NON SAS BIG BEND

[Turkk22]

I NEED ASSIANTACE WITH MY BRONCO
MY BUDDY SOLD ME HIS SAS BILSTEIN AND LEVELING KIT SUSPENSION AND RECENTLY INSTALLED ON MY BIG BEND NON SAS

I NOTICE THE UPPER CONTROL ARM IS ANGLED DOWN AGGRESSIVELY IM RUNNING 33 TIRES WILL BE SWAPPING TO 35 ON THE WEEKEND

DO I NEED TO ALIGN THE CASTER ? SWAP OUT THE UPPER CONTROL? OR REMOVE THE LEVELING KIT?

I can't answer anything but, if you changed suspension, you need an alignment. As to what the UCA is supposed to look like with a leveling kit, I can't say, but it will definitely be angled more than it was.
Are both you and your buddies broncos the same door and engine configuration?

How much spacer?

How much spacer?

my buddy Said it’s a zone off-road 2inch

I did some research and apparently I need a aftermarket UCA

So, 2 + 1.1 (Sas)= 3.1. I'd say you definitely need an alignment. UCA will have quite an angle but those in the know sa the factory UCA has as munch range as most aftermarket. I'd say CV an tierod angles would be your biggest concern.

Have you driven it at all or is this immediately after dropping it back on the ground? It will settle a hair when the suspension cycles. The UCA angle still looks a lot better than what I'm dealing with having 4" of lift (2" more than I wanted).

Not that I'm aware of.

I did get Icon tubular UCAs but I don't think I really need them.
