You can go with the less expensive one's.....but you lose your right for buyers remorse.....look it up in the rule book.
No B.S.


Also what I did was, call up the 3 manufactures that I was interested in and asked them why should I buy their lower control arm's over so & so's lower control arm.
They all explained the differences.... diameter size, pivot joint size and so on. If you are only concerned about price go for the lower priced one. If not the manufactures
can give you ALL the differences...................




P.S. I went with Teraflex, but that was my choice.

that they would be more than twice as much money? I've heard good things out of these Rough Country arms but could the TF arms be that much better? what makes these that much more expensive?
I like Rock Krawlers abuse proof lifetime warranty. Very strong. I use Currie uppers, top notch using true johnny joints and OE rubber bushings not poly. The RC x-flex arms are known to need rebuilding sooner than later Lots of great options out there though

Rough country's xflex control arms have a life time warranty on them, same with there lift kits. I personally haven't had any issues with rough country. Great customer service and there product puts up with the abuse I throw at it
