Or you can get the Steeda UCA ... proven on the street & on the race track for over the past 40 years.

We have the experience, engineering, and manufacturing facilities to make the highest quality parts. Do you want to trust your investment with a product that you hope doesn't fail because they wen't back and re-designed it?

Best Regards,

TJ

Understand what you're trying to say, but that statement also implies that Steeda doesn't ever go back and redesign a piece and makes everything perfect from the get go. That being said I would probably purchase a Steeda comp UCA since it has been proven to not break under stress.

No we have re-designed parts ... but not under the same conditions. We have learned from failures on the track, and in our testing then we have gone back to re-design parts. There will always be failures at some point ... no company is immune to that ... but would you rather have the failures occur in the testing stage or in the consumer stage?

There are always going to be new companies that come on the scene, with what may look like "better" & cheaper products, but in the end ... they may not always be the safest/most reliable parts for your investment.

Look at our tuning for example; many companies tried to be first to the market to maximize their profits. Steeda was behind the 8 ball, by choice, still testing and developing our tune ... many of those companies that came first to the market started experiencing engine failures. Steeda did not, and that was a testament to our testing and development.

The bottom line: One must choose their aftermarket parts wisely so that the integrity of their vehicle is not compromised. In that accord, it is prudent to align yourself with a proven leader in Ford performance parts and accessories, one that works hand-in-hand with Ford Motor Company, and one that designs, engineers, and manufacturers their products under the same ISO quality system that Ford operates under and lastly, one that has a lifetime guarantee on their products. Just be aware that approximately 99% of aftermarket companies do not operate under the strict procedures that Steeda does, therein lies the "Steeda Difference" that you can have confidence with

Best Regards,

Very nice set up ... let us know once you get them installed how the ride and handling are compared to your original set-up.

Best Regards,

I've been running my WL UCA for 3000 miles and no signs of failure yet, but I've got my name in line for the revision.

You've been using the 2013+ UCA for 40 years?

They're all about the same age regardless of the manufacturer. They found a flaw and are fixing it.

And on a side note, a guy from BMO that tracks his GT with a Steeda UCA said it is finally coming apart, so they do break eventually. WL said the revision should be another 30-60 days and that was about a week ago, looking forward to see what they come up with.

Yes, that was a typo ... should have been 20 years. Mistakes do happen.

No one has contacted us in regards to their part having issues ... if the car was tracked and was pushed to the limits on many occasions ... I am sure there would be signs of wear.

If you would like to send him my way ... he can contact me at tim@steeda.com.


Best Regards,

TJ
