Are BP-51 worth it?

The BP-51 shocks can be setup for that creamy soft feel on the highway, but that can also result in poor handling where the vehicle can easily be destabilized.

It’s more for alignment unless you’re looking at Total Chaos. 3”+ of lift I would get aftermarket UCA’s.

If you’re running 2.5-3+” of lift then I’d recommend considering upgrading the UCA.
