Typically businesses tend to provide mostly correct information. Mostly.
Haha, 100% correct, 68% of the time.

I’m in no position to defend Eibach, however, I notice something that lends credence to their claim - they don’t sell kits that include UCAs. They sell UCAs, and they’re not budget priced, but Eibach has no marketing or tech specs suggestive of needing UCAs for their lift and level kits.

You’d think they’d exploit the need if there was one. I’ll definitely report back, my Icon leafs and Eibach stage 1 gets installed Weds.

If set at 3" or less you do not need to replace your UCA. As the Eibach have an extra inch of travel your stock UCA will not be able to use it or articulate as well as aftermarket.

Mine was fine with 2 1/2" of lift, no issues with aligning. I later added Icon UCA and it definitely made a difference.

Either way the Eibach will be a major improvement over stock.

You gotta look at it like this; they can't account for the mods someone might have on their truck that might effect the front suspension geometry...

...like a tailgate dampener!
