Upper Control Arm Recommendations?
Should I replace my UCAs with aftermarket if I don't need to camber or track my car?
I noticed I need to replace my front left UCA and wanted to know what's the best option for me. Currently lowered of F-Sport Springs. I thought about OEM but since the OEM and aftermarket are about the same price so why not replace both front UCAs with aftermarket options. I don't have a need for camber or suspension adjustability yet but will be upgrading my suspension more in the future. I was looking at the Megan Racing or Godspeed UCA because they are affordable and they look really nice and match my f sport springs. Been browsing the threads and found other options as well like RR Racing UCA and Figs but they are pricey,
Are Megan Racing suspension parts good? I heard good things about the coil overs but nothing much about the other components.

Megan is good......main thing you need to do is tighten the nuts/bolts on the UCA's while the suspension is compressed to it's natural rested height. This will prevent the bushings from getting stretched/ripped.
Wow it’s been two years since I posted this. Funny thing is I still havnt bought any UCAs. Still have my OEM but I did started to track my car and threw on bigger wheels. My driver side ball joint went out randomly last week and now I’m in search of UCA. I was about to pull the trigger on Megan racing ones but I think I am going to replace it with another OEM for now and save up $$ for FIGS instead. From what I hear they are worth their weight in gold.
