GEN 1 RPG or SVC UCA & Tie Rods

[Gen1TillDeath]

I’ve tried looking at every thread I could find as far as pros/cons on the RPG or SVC tie rods. Didn’t find any factual reasons between either of them. So last week I went ahead and bought RPG only because I was already purchasing the ford performance rear diff cover by and ROUSH intake from stage 3 who also sold the RPG’s. Man…. They’re beefy! They also came with fresh boots, I’m also gonna purchase FK heim joint covers to put on with some grease. I’ve just heard the grins wear faster.

I just saw this thread. Thanks Todd for your order and glad I was able to take care of the UCA and Tie rods for you.
You are really going to enjoy that setup. Thanks again!

Did you get the full or half tie rods? Thanks for the advice.

DIY halfs, I can help you with measurements if you’re looking to build yourself.

SVC makes great parts, but I had a pretty ****** experience with their customer service after purchasing one of their bumpers. RPG on the other hand make great parts and have excellent customer service.

Understood that these are just my anecdotal experiences, but there’s a reason why I’ll keep going back to RPG in the future.

Interesting. I’ve had a great experience with SVC, even when I was being difficult with custom requests. In fact, I’ve heard nothing but good things about their support so I’m a little surprised. Though no one is perfect.

With that said, I’m using Icon UCAs (Stage 4 suspension) and the SVC tie rods. Works very well for what I need. If you’re on the fence, the SVC tie rods make a pretty big difference in steering feel.

I just got everything installed, I think it turned out great!!! Hopefully I can get it aligned sometime this week and take it out next weekend.
