Lower Control Arm Question
I have the 2.5" Rock Krawler Stock Mod Lift and for the most part I love the lift. It does feel a little flighty and I was told that the lower control arms would fix the problem. I have enough to get one pair and was thinking of getting the fronts only. Would this fix the problem and is it ok to only do the fronts right now and do the rears later?

Fwiw I am stock height and tires, I have a BDS 3 inch waiting to go on but I am slowly piecing together suspension components, I put rk adj lowers on the front and haven't touched others and they work fine, real beefy product

The adjustable ctrl arms will allow you to fine tune your caster. So you can get that sweet spot between drive shaft vibration, and steering. Too much either way is not a good thing. Just do a search, there are plenty of threads reguarding the issue that go into great detail. HTH

I would check the toe in first. May save you some cash. Should be in 1/8". Improper toe in can affect handling. A lot of shorter lifts come without adjustable control arms.
