Default install 3/13

So I am going to install my FT control arms on 3/13. I was wondering what length I should make them for a 2.5" lift ? I am replacing all 8. Thanks in advance.

If you buy a kit it should tell you how long to make your arms.

I have looked at the write-up but I was not sure if it would work for a 2.5" lift.

Set the frt lowers 23" eye to eye. It's a good starting point. Especially if your just installing front lowers. Since you have stock bumpers you most likely have 3 in or so of lift in the front w the TF coils. Edit, oops see u got all eight, yeah, set them per the 3in lift write-up
