Post adjustable UCA install - are these correct

Everyone thank you, I will go back and lengthen the arms to get the balljoint closer to 90 degrees

That’s not what they said. The ball joint should be at an angle, that’s your caster.

The heim joint on the front leg of the UCA seems like it’s excessively angled. That would mean the heim might run out of range as the UCA moves through the suspension travel. If the heim binds up before the UCA hits the bump stops you’ll trash the heim and shorten its life. The heim should probably be closer to vertical. But, you have to check the heim through the entire range of suspension travel. It may be maxed out in the picture, but, that may just be because the UCA is on the bump stop (the travel is also maxed out). It’s not ideal if that’s the way it has to be, but with some cars it may be necessary.

Do you know the actual alignment specs? Because that would definitely help us evaluate those pictures.

That might be because you have the suspension hanging free, put a jack under the LCA and raise it up to load the suspension and see if that angle changes.

I would also want those heim joints 90* to the mounting pin.

I'm certainly no expert on these, lol, but those 2 things jumped out at me.

I thought about that too, but I would think it would be more important to have them parallel to the lower control arm. Not an expert here either though.

90* to the pin isn’t always possible, and it’s not absolutely necessary. But you do have to make sure you don’t exceed the angle range of the heim as it runs through the entire suspension travel range. You don’t want the heim to bind up as the UCA runs through the available suspension travel. Heims have a misalignment angle tolerance, you just have to make sure yours operate within their range.
