I know the uniballs in the Camburg UCAs allow for more joint movement.
Are the Camburgs or Fox shocks you guys are using longer (eye-to-eye) than the factory struts when fully extended?
If so, by how much? I'm curious how much more droop is gained over the factory struts (or say the Bilstein 5100s).

Count me in! Just ordered Fox 2.5" Coil overs and Fox 2.5" Rear External Reservoir shocks. Wife should be picking them up this weekend! 
Ordering RPG UCA's and Steering tie rods next month! And then I'm home in June to install it all. RPG Stage 3 kit will have to wait until August...wives just don't understand...

I would certainly luv to be in the Camburg kit if it didn't limit the rim selection to a maximum backspacing of 5", which prevents all OEM 20" rims and many aftermarket F-150 rims from being used.
I hope this supposed new kit from RPG would change all that...

Yeah, I dunno man. Looks like the stuff I thought they were releasing for the F-150 was the new upper arms for the Raptor instead. Those won't work on the F-150, but I hear they are working on those so who knows, hopefully soon. The problem I think you would have with ANY aftermarket arm is the size of the bearing. Camburg uses a 1.25", the RPG UCA is 1.5" - those won't work with OEM wheels. RPG makes a 1" Bearing version of their arms for folks running OEM wheels. So if I'm not mistaken, that's where the OEM issue comes in to play.

Nice Rigs guys!
I am running the Icon coilovers on stock arms and have been very happy with the performance... I jump the sweet baby jesus out of my truck!
Running 20x9 Methods with 34" Nittos TG
I am trading in the Oh-10 tomorrow on a Boost... So I have to put my truck back to stock tonight ... bahhh!
On this next truck I am going to get the upper arms before I put the Coilovers back on.. Crank them down a tad and get some smaller tires. They look killer but I am looking to increase my milage.. I do about 80 miles round trip everyday. I think they ride a ton better with some preload taken out too....
My truck will run with a raptor through the dunes for the most part... Until the 5.4 doesn't pull a big hill.
