Just lowered a 2014 mustang on BC coilovers and I believe my pinion angle is now off causing my pinion seal to leak. I am looking to buy an adjustable UCA however I see them sold in pairs and some sold single. From the videos I have seen looks like I will only need one UCA to adjust my pinion angle?
Thanks for any help guys.

At the minimum the upper but I usually prefer to upgrade all of it.

Here's an article covering the matter

Btw if the seal is leaking. It's toast and should be replaced also.

There is only a single Upper Control Arm on the Coyote mustangs.

You will want to get the UCA and Bracket:

UCA

Dont skip on the bracket or you will get clunks and pops in the rear end.


Install and adjust -2 degrees on the pinion and call it a day.
