having an issue with my driver side Rough Country UCA- wont sit fully in the cup so the bolt holes are about 1/4" off.
they even sent me a new control arm thinking the one supplied was faulty, but same issue.

WTF is going on?

[uppro4x]

yeah, its like the back of the cup is too shallow, so it cnt fit in all the way

Any chance the arms are on the wrong side?

Had the same issue with my DK's. Pry bar that'll fit in the bolt hole + BFH and beat the shyte out of the arm to jam it in there.

got it solved- I had to grind the heck out of the holster cup. took off probably 3/8" of material. I would grind some, fit it and see where it was scrapping still, grind that area, re-fit, grind, re-fit. Took about 2 hours of this process.
I wrote RC and let them know, after looking at the A-arm design I noticed that the back side of the bushing area was thicker than the front side which the arm welds onto. The could readily fix the grinding fitment issue by a simple re-design of the bushing housing making the back thin like the front.

Ive had 3 trucks now, miss my Tundra, my Tacoma was just a monster (7" of lift, supercharged on 35" tires) and now my Titan. I had my tundra leveled as well and I have to say this RC kit with the arms was much more difficult for a home garage mechanic to install, but results were far better. I used the RC leveling kit on my Tundra.

Now to get it aligned- I like my alignments to have a slight negative camber so the tires sit more flush rather than wearing on the outside as the typiclly do.
