Default Lower control arms...which ones?

I am looking for front upper and lower control arms for my 3" full traction lift. I need them to correct caster. I am torn between the currie's, full traction and teraflex. I like the wuality taht i have in the full traction and currie is known for very high quality products and great customer service. Currie and teraflex are in the 260 ranger per set but FT is $ 329.00 . Anybody have good or bad experiencxe with these? recommendations? Im looking for excellent quality nad a good price with good Customer service!

I have seen some Rusty's arms on an XJ an i can say those are very stout and i am sure thier JK arms would be just. And price wise they are much cheaper.

Im sure I would be happy with the full traction arms, the look beefy. When you read the info on them, they say that they are upgradable to the poly inserts. I would say for what they are asking for them (alot higher than the others) that they would be included in these arms though. Just doing a cost-benefit analysis on spending the extra for the FT arms.

dave, those Curries look great. What can you tell me about their strength. What about warranty? When those joints shell out, how much are the replacements? are these ready to ship? If I have a problem with them will I actually be able to call and talk to a person in customer service? These may seem like dumb questions, but the product is only as good as the people that back them!. Thanks

The arms are adjustable so you should be able to set your desired length. The arms are design to work with the Currie lift wich lift the front 5.5" and rear 3".

The cost of replacement bushings is $8.00 per JJ (2 bushings ea.)
