Default 2-3.5" Lift kit with Adjustable lower control arms?

Does anyone make a 2 to 3.5" kit with lower adjustable control arms. Seems like you only get the adjustable LCA's with the 4"+ kits. The reason im asking is that I would like a mild lift with the ability to adjust caster properly without having to use Cam bolts or Cam washers.
Thanks guys,
Thomas

Geometry correction brackets will do the job, or just get adjustable arms if you want them. The arms don't hafta be part of a kit.

Almost all of them do. Check Rock Krawler for their 2.5-3.5 kits, as well as Teraflex, Metal Cloak, etc. All have control arms available. Or you can also just get control arms separately from anywhere and add them to your current lift.

Stay away from Cam bolts! You can always add a set of adjustable control arms when you buy your kit.

How important are the front lca's? Reason I ask is because I'm trying to decide between the rock krawler 2.5 stock mod and the 2.5 flex. Real big difference I see is that the flex offers the front lca's and longer brake lines for about $300 more with the flex as opposed to ~$400 more buying sep. trying to justify the flex over the stock mod.

Personally, I would get the front LCAs either as part of the kit or separately. I didn't when I got my lift and I had the "flighty" issue. Installed the arms and the Jeep now drives straight.

Got the RK Stock Mod and purchaced the LCA's seperate. The low castor did cause the steering to be flighty. The LCA's dialed the castor back in and now drives like stock.



They look badass too.
