I've had long arms on my Jeep for a couple of years. Decided it was time to make them adjustable. I went over to Summit Machine to see what they had. My arms are Rubicon Express short arms that I lengthened. They have some trick components that I used with my current arms. I guess they used to make the provide Rubicon Express with their super flex joints.

Here are the parts I got from Summit Machine(Mike).

I then cut off my super flex joint and cleaned it up. Then mocked it up with the adjustable new hardware.

Forgot to take pics of welding in the tube adapter. Got everything lined up and did some tack welds.

The parts are simple and went together very easy. They have held up great so far. For those with fixed RE arms this is a great way to make your arms adjustable. Thanks for the parts Mike!

Those things are awesome. It's definitely a stronger way to mount those casings to a threaded end. :cool:
