    I have a 2010 limted 4wd. My xreas suspension went out. I plan to delete this system. What have you guys installed that will give me the 2” lift in the front? I rarely go off road but do occasionally during hunting season. Purchased 275/55r20 tires so I need the clearance.

    Sounds like some Bilstein 5100's might be in your future.

    For my 2016 limited, I opted for 2018 trd pro take offs. Then I added the Cornfed leveling kit 2/1.5”. It rides firmer then my xreas with some added lift. I think it’s a economical option until I’m ready for a coil over setup.

    Any squeaks out of your UCAs? What are you using to grease them?

    No squeaks. Grease gun every time I change oil. The upper zerk fittings require loosening the bolt before greasing. The lower one can be greased without loosening.

    I have JBAs on mine as well, and I’ve heard that some squeak, although mine don’t squeak yet, which is why I asked. I’ve greased mine once, and had no problem greasing the upper ones. Is the reason you loosen the bolt just to ensure that the grease gets in there? It doesn’t seem like it’s necessary, but it might be a good tip. Thanks.

    it allows for correct flow of grease in the bushing

    That might not be the case for JBA. I'm not sure if you've seen their bushings, but they are pretty clever with the relief cuts which create channels for the grease to flow.

    When I first got my jba’s installed, it started squeaking days after installation. I loosen the long bolt, applied the grease on both ends. It has not squeaked since. Now I apply grease the same way when i I change oil.
