[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 15729336, member: 9628"] Here is a side-by-side compro for the 2007-2010 oem and BMR UCA's and the 2011-2014 oem and BMR UCA's............ Shorter arm, flimsier UCM 2007-2010 on left [ATTACH=full]1440986[/ATTACH] You will notice that the oem 2011-up UCM is much more robust than the 2007-2010 in the picture below. [ATTACH=full]1440987[/ATTACH] But, if you are lowered, the UCM adjustment (upper or lower holes) is what comes into play for correct UCA adjustment...... [ATTACH=full]1440989[/ATTACH] Above picture, in addition to showing the UCM mounting choices was also a comparison I did between the smaller 2007-2010 UCA through bolt and the 2011-2014 larger more robust hardware. In my opinion, any 2007-2010 owner who is contemplating installing an upgrade UCA/UCM should consider the longer (better geometry), more robust 2011-2014 set up for their earlier car. I have had the 2011-2014 BMR UCA/UCM in my 2008 for about 5 years with no issues. <<Best of all, it adds the longer arm and beefier hardware as Ford found was needed as they increased HP and attempted to improve traction over the years of GT500 testing and development. The UCM attachment bolt under the rear seat was even upsized (on right) for 2011........ [ATTACH=full]1440994[/ATTACH] R [/QUOTE]
