Jeep long arm upgrade trouble...

[gijohn40]

I ordered the Rusty's offroad long arm upgrade with the high clearance lower arms... when it got here someone messed up and send standard clearance rear lower arms... not a problem I called them and they are sending the correct ones and told me to just run the standards until they got here then switch them out...

So I got to work yesterday at 9am and around 5pm I finally had the frame mounts and the skip plate and front done... I ran it that night and found a problem... the high clearance arms are for lifts of 5.5 and above... I have a 4 inch lift. so I only have 1.5 inches of up travel. (see pictures)

Today I set to work at 10am on the rears... finished up around 3pm... I think the standard clearance arms are what I really should have ordered.

So now I need to decide if I want to order the 6 inch springs that Rusty's has or find someone that has some and wants to trade or just get some 2 inch pucks and install them over the 4 inch springs.... What would you all suggest?

I would get the standard arms and stay at 4 inches. 6 inches is too high.

What he said, that's going to be tall and tippy. Get standard arms and if you want to run larger tires get some high clearance fenders, low and slow

LJs with 6" springs I think look awesome but 4" springs would work better, So I am of no help

What everyone else said... I'm on 4" springs with straight lowers and it's fine (I am on 40's though)...

I was on 37's and no lift but with long arms. Worked great.
