There's no such thing as 'true HUMMER' UCA. If you run the HUMMER part number for the upper control arm (25905442) you'll find that the UCA was a cross-model part from the get go...

...used on everything from Escalades to 3500s. You received the same part you would have received if the HUMMER brand was still around...prolly just a normal revision to an existing part. Mechanically, these trucks are not as 'like nothing else' as some would like to think.
Now, if AMG goes under, then the H1 guys are 'up sh!t creek.'
