Default Do i need FRONT ARM RELOCATION kit?

I have a 2.5" suspension lift on 35's and just got a 2"BL which i plan to install during spring break, set me up in the 3-4in range so better be on the safe side and ask if ill need my front arms relocated.

It's a beach crawler, RARELY hits mud or rocks. If that helps decide if I need them or not.

Nope, your fine. 2.5 lift doesn't change the steering geometry enough to make a huge differenece. I ran it for two year. The body lift won't change the geometry at all, just raises the center of gravity of your jeep. You could get some control ARM brackets and it would bring it back close to factory ride but really its not an issue.

No, if you ever decide you need to correct the caster angle just install a set of lower adjustable control arms
