The Freedom Offroad UCA’s are what Stage 3 has. I did see that Stage 3 has an extended 1” ball joint like the QA1’s. I’ll have to see if they are universal fit.

You should contact the manufacturer, ask them how they resolve this?
Both pictures are with the truck on the ground. The level kit was purchased on Amazon. It was a known issue with a 3” level going in when I bought it and it’s not really hurting anything the way it is now. If I was off roading it, then it’d be another story. I’d just like to correct it as much as possible.

They have taller knuckles, but it pushes the wheel out 1/2-1”. I’m already using a 1-1/2” spacers as is and don’t want to go out further.
