Provides More Articulation and Strength with a Quiet Ride
For folks that value long-term reliability and a clean, quiet ride over deflection angles and hardcore off-roading should skip uniball upper control arms and take a look at these BDS Tubular Steel Ball Joint Upper Control Arms. These BDS UCAs combine an extremely strong tubular steel construction with an uprated MOOG Ball Joint that's more durable than the stock ball joint and is installed in an indexed housing that allows for more deflection and articulation than stock that makes it perfect for leveled and lifted 2021-2025 F150s. The BDS UCAs drop right into place of your F150's stock upper control arms, making them a hassle-free upgrade to your F150's suspension.
Strong Tubular Steel Construction with Uprated Ball Joint and Rubber Bushings
The BDS UCAs manage to provide more strength and durability than the factory control arms, all while keeping your F150's ride clean and quiet, even in aggressive applications. The control arms are made out of 1.5" diameter mandrel-bent tubular steel with .120" wall thickness and a gloss black powder coat finish, which makes them much stronger than the factory stamped steel upper control arms. The control arms are built around an uprated MOOG ball joint in and indexed housing that allows for slightly more travel and articulation than stock while helping the UCAs avoid spring contact in leveled applications. The ball joint is replaceable, and uses an extremely common MOOG part number that's easy to find. The control arms use high-durometer rubber bushings for their body mounts which are quieter and more reliable than polyurethane bushings.
Fitment:
2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 F150
Will not fit 2021, 2022, 2023 Raptor
Will not fit CCD systems:
these UCAs will not F150s equipped with the OEM Continuously Controlled Damping (CCD) systems.
Does not include headlight leveling provision:
this version of BDS's UCAs do not include a provision for the headlight leveling arm on F150s equipped with dynamic bending headlights.
A version with a leveling arm provision is also available
.
Backspacing Requirements:
these upper control arms require a wheel with a maximum of a 5.50" of backspacing in order to clear a 12.50" wide tire. Wheels with larger amounts of backspacing will fit, but you will be required to use narrower tires.
Wheels and Tires:
0-2" Lift:
Will work with stock wheels / tires with a ~ 1/4” wheel spacer, wider tires on stock wheels may get close to the ball joint cup and control arm when turning. 5.5”- 4.5” back spacing is recommended for control arm clearance. Tire size is relative to lift amount.
6" Lift:
See Lift Manufacturers Recommendations
I recently installed Bilstein 5100 2inch level on my 2024 F150 King Ranch. I am running stock wheels with 275 60 20 bfg KO3. Will there be any rubbing with these UCA?
Asked by:
Richard Saldivar
- 7/31/2025
The BDS fitment for up to 2" is as follow "0-2" Lift: Will work with stock wheels / tires with a ~ 1/4” wheel spacer". So you will need to purchase a 1/4" wheel spacer to put some space between the tire sidewall and uca cup with stock wheels and stock 275 width tires.

If I’m running 35x12.50x20 Kendra rts with a fox 2.0 level kit on a 2021 king ranch 5.0, will I need a spacer to fit the UCA and tires?
Asked by:
Oscar
- 7/12/2025
If you are running factory wheels, you will need to run wheel spacers to decrease the backspace and push the tire sidewall away from the ball joint cup to avoid it rubbing. BDS recommends max backspace of 5.5", but you may need slightly less to clear a 12.5" wide tire. 1.5-2" wheel spacers would be optimal for that wide of a tire when using stock wheels.

I’m looking at using 5100s to level my 2022 f150 fx4 at the 2 inch setting. Will this UCA set accommodate the factory 44 offset wheels with a 285/60R20 tire or will I have to upgrade wheels to something with more backspacing?
Asked by:
Lmwashere
- 2/17/2025
BDS wheel/tire fitment with stock wheels/tires requires use of a 1/4" wheel spacer for the tire sidewall not to rub on the uca balljoint cup. You would need to run a spacer for 285 wide tires on stock wheels.

Will these make coil contact like the stock arms with a 2.5" lift spacer?
Asked by:
Kyle
- 6/18/2023
The stock arms make coil contact because of the angle they are sitting once additional height is added to the vehicle. These are designed for the added front height to eliminate that angle and allow for proper coil spring clearance.
