Default BDS upper control arms on 6” lift

I have a 2021 STX with a crew max short bed 4x4. Has anyone even installed aftermarket UCA's yet or am I going to be the Guinea pig?
I was wondering the same thing except I have the BDS upc arms already and would like to know if anybody has them on a 6” pro comp lift kit 4x4 I just had the Fox 2.5 Coil overs installed also. Should I leave it as is or will the BDS work on my setup ?? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Here is the new setup, 4” lift with Fox 2.5, pretty close to what you are thinking, the BDS have a nice clearance and work well. If was to do it again I think I would go with the RPG.

nice setup, Ive not found more info on the BDS arms with a 6” lift and the few I have found are saying they only work with 2-4” lifts . Specs say they are made for 6” BDS lift kits or any other lift kits which mine is a 6” pro comp lift and the Fox 2.5 Coil overs for 6” lift are the extended versions. Don’t want to change the geometry or specs the pro comp lift kit are designed not to change the factory specs/angles. Was hoping to find more info if the BDS UCAs will work fine on pro comps 6” lift kit with 35s x 12.50 x 20. Thank you for the info & advice.

I know you posted this awhile back but wanted to ask you how did this setup work out? Looks like you have Fox Coils on front and 4” lift. So the BDS UCAs will or will not work right on a 6” lift ? Did you find out any more information? Thanks
