quick question - how do you remove the UCAs? just support lower arm , undo that long bolt , the ball joint and away you go? is there enough room in front of that long bolt to withdraw it? how are the joints held in? cant see that detail

Yes, that's the way it is. The long bolt exits through the engine casing. Unhook the ball joint and then remove the UCA where the box is, put the other and just mount again.
I have not yet set up the arms of bajakits. Tomorrow I'll mount and put photos with him mounted.
He has more course in the ball joint. See the photo of the slope of the ball joints. The original does not have this inclination. So it is quite probable that you can make a bigger lift with this UCA without damaging the course of it.

I was able to install the 275/70R18 without modifications in the wheels, only changing the upper arms control and with lift of 45mm.

Nice shocks!

Did you happen to measure the open length of the kings?
I might be wrong.

Give Brad (or anyone at King Aus) a call and ask. They're great to deal with. I love my Kings
