Current Coiliver Lift Options?

[IwannaGOfast]

One huge advantage of the adjustable heim upper control arms that often gets forgotten, is the ability to dial in the alignment by moving the Heim joints. If you delete the slots that the lower control arms slide in and out, you essentially achieve PERMANENT alignment.

If you've ever knocked your steering out on the trail you'll now how awesome this is..

only one company I know of makes this "slot delete kit", its one of the first things im adding to mine.

There are a few options for this in the sticky thread at the top of this section.

Of course there is always the old fashioned weld washer option as well.

These came in last week. Ordered Wednesday, delivered Friday.

These are the 4WP Coil-Overs. Paired with the Adjustable Rear Track Bar, Camburg UCAs and Rear Lower Links the suspension should be pretty solid.

The Fox Coil-Overs I have on order are still a couple months out, so I am told. They will go on another Bronco I have on order.

The coil over assembly on a Bronco has nothing to do with its alignment, it is all manipulated on eccentrics on the control arms. This is not like a MacPherson strut where you can manipulate caster/camber by changing the relationship between the strut bottom and knuckle, and strut to body mount interface. The coil over is only controlling ride height and damping.

I believe Icon is working on the wide/longer travel kit...Stage (9) maybe.

I am pretty sure that no one was claiming that the coilovers are used for alignment purposes.

What DoYouBronco was stating was that by running an upper control arm with heim joints you could use the adjustability of the heim joint to do your alignment. By replacing the lower control arms slotted hole for the eccentric bolt/cam with a round (fixed) hole, it is no longer adjustable. And once the vehicle is aligned properly (using the upper arm heims), it has no way of losing its alignment from any big hits taken while offroading.

Looking into getting these coilovers to add 35's. Are the aftermarket UCA's a requirement?

My understanding is for the new Bronco that any lift over 2" an Upper Control Arm is recommended.

Then an alignment after the install.

These Coil-Overs out of the box are set at a 3" Lift. You won't need that much lift to clear the 35s.

I would install the Coil-Overs, mount your tires, then adjust the Coil-Over height as you like. You may be able to get a good alignment with the stock UCAs with about 2" of lift???

I've had my Icon coilover set up with the delta joint upper ca's and the adjustable track bar on order for a month or 2. There was a run of their new set up they were doing for April that they posted.... I'm hopeful to have them by the end of the month!! Time will tell tho. Lol

Radflos are readily available. Just got mine, now gotta figure out the ucas and track bar.

I am looking into Coil-Over Lifts for my Bronco (Whenever it gets here) and want to see what the current Lift options are. I am looking for adjustable height to install with Sasquatch Package and raise later for possible 37s. Once raised more than 2", you will also need Upper Control Arms and maybe a rear Adjustable Trac Bar.

1. - 4Wheel Parts Coil-Overs with another brand of Upper Control Arms. This lift is adjustable (1-3.5") and can accommodate up to 37" Tires. I like that it's adjustable and does Not have the Remote Reservoirs and not having to trim the plastic inner fender to mount them. Seems to be a Very solid Coil-Over for just about any lifted Bronco, unless a Race Truck. These are the Coil-Overs I ended up going with on my Green 4-Door Bronco. Very Nice Ride!

2. - Fox Coil-Overs with another brand of Upper Control Arms - Fox is considered one of the best and a standard for others to compare to. These Coil-Overs are also adjustable and have the Remote Reservoirs. I spoke with a Fox Tech yesterday and he did not expect any available until the end of January and recommended getting on a vendors list. I then called one of the top venders he recommended and they told me 8-10 months before they expected to see any.

3. King - I have also seen these listed but are on Pre-Order as well with no definite time for availability.

4. - Fabtech / Dirt Sport - Good looking kit with Upper Control Arms and Rear Lower Links. Same story - On Pre Order maybe for a couple months.

I also want to do a Lift right the first time and not upgrade in the future.


Upper Control Arms

4Wheel Parts, Camburg, Fabtech, RPG, BDS, Icon - Any Others?


If there are any other Coil-Over Options please let me know and I can list them in this post.

Thank you

You should probably update your first post, since that's where most will start. Since your post Rancho, Icon, Eibach, Radflo, and maybe others have either become available or announced soon to be available.
