It's time to replace the upper control arms. I have a PME negative wedge kit and all. What are a few options for GOOD UCA items?

Well, the arms, themselves, rarely wear out. The shafts and bushings can be serviced and the ball joint replaced. On the other hand, for ease of service, the entire UCA can be replaced. I picked up a pair of Dorman's on Amazon.com and am very pleased with them. On the other hand, if you're going to the trouble of replacing the entire assembly you might want to consider some Opentrackers....
