Default Longarm question

Ok, got a question for the suspension guys. I was thinking of getting long arms for my jk. I currently have a 3inch lift on there now. 3" inches of lift is perfect for my needs and feels about right. So, could I use my 3inch coils with the long arm setup?

ummm, yeah, you could but i guess i wondering why you are wanting long arms? with 3" of lift, factory length arms are plently long enough and you really don't need anything more.

I was thinking future capability, plus the ability to dial in the ride. but I guess adjustable control arms all the way around would work also.

Rockkrawler makes a nice 3link long arm rear end upgrade for 3" short arm lifts. Then you could upgrade the front later on if ever.

actually, all you really "need" are adjustable front lowers and adjustable rear uppers. however, getting all of them would be optimal
