    Given that I just did the ome lift and still have stock arms, I'm definitely interested in these. In fact, I'm open to prototyping them if they're interested in a test truck

    Does anyone make an UCA that has caster adjustment? I assume the answer is "no", but I thought I'd ask anyway.

    Nope. With some minor modifications though we'd be able to get some cammed UCA bolts which would enable both camber & caster adjustments regardless of which arms are installed. Not sure the need is really there though.

    I was on stock arms after my OME lift and mine specs were dead on, never had a problem other than the steering wheel not being straight from a poor mechanic

    It would probably be easier to increase the slot size for the lca mounting point if more adjustment is needed.....

    But back on topic; I know they signed up so hopefully we hear from AM soon. Looking forward to hearing their thoughts on the design improvements I recommemded in this thread and emails.

    I was looking at their website last night and all I can say is WOW!!! They're long travel suspensions are insane, especially they're ford ranger crossbeam design:http://american-motorsports.net/?pag...suspensionId=3

    If I my XK was 2wd I would seriously consider trying to work with them on a swap to a long travel suspension up front.

    Kinda small, but here's a pic of the ranger in the link:
