Default Adjustable Upper Rear Control Arms ??

I understand the reasons for having adjustable upper front control arms,,
but what is the advantage of having rear adjustable upper control arms?

you need rear upper adjustables to properly dial in your pinion angle.

Northridge, is there any reason everyone seems to be doing adjustable uppers instead of lowers?

IMHO the correct way to do it is the lowers are to adjust the wheelbase and the uppers the pinion angle.

Default Ahh,,, I see

Thanks Northridge4x4,, that makes sense to me now.
I have a 4"Skyjacker lift and waiting for the Tire guy to deliver my 37" SS Trxus,,, I may need the adjustable arms in back to position tires this large correctly.
