Construction & Design

The Fabtech Uniball UCA Lift System features a robust design centered around high-quality materials and precision engineering. The upper control arms are crafted from heavy-duty steel and utilize a Uniball joint, which offers superior articulation and strength compared to standard ball joints. The control arms are engineered with CAD software to ensure perfect fitment and optimal suspension geometry.

The system’s components are TIG-welded for added strength and durability, and the entire assembly is finished with a corrosion-resistant coating to withstand the elements. The design maintains factory-like handling and steering response while providing the added clearance and articulation needed for off-road adventures. The kit’s modular construction allows for easy installation and future upgrades if desired.

Performance & Sound

With the Fabtech 3-inch Uniball UCA Lift System installed, your vehicle will experience improved ground clearance, better wheel articulation, and a more commanding stance. The upgraded control arms help support larger tires, which can enhance traction and off-road capability. While this lift system primarily focuses on performance and durability, you may notice a slight increase in suspension noise due to the Uniball joints, which are designed for longevity and consistent performance.

On the road, you’ll enjoy a stable and predictable ride, with handling characteristics close to factory specifications. Off-road, the increased articulation and ground clearance allow for more aggressive driving over rough terrain, rocks, and obstacles, making your GM SUV or truck more capable and versatile.

For optimal performance and alignment, a professional wheel alignment is recommended after installation. The kit is compatible with 2021 and newer GM SUVs and trucks, including popular models such as the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, with a 3-inch lift height that balances off-road capability with on-road comfort.
