Default Full Traction Long Arm and Shrockrails

Can the Full Traction Long Arm work on a 2D that has Shrockrails installed?
Also, with the FTLA, I know it is bolt on, but is anything required to be removed or ground or cut off, such as the old control arm mounts, or can the Long Arm be removed and the stock suspension put back on. Not that I would do that, but I'm trying to get a feel for the install difficulty.

Not sure on the shrockwork I would assume so. But you will have to cut off the lower control arm brackets for sure.

There are some issues with the install, as you are anticipating.

Check out my album in my.project.jk and you can see the areas of concern. I don't know why the sizes of these pictures is so different???










The Schrockworks sliders need to have the most rearward frame mount cut and then re-welded in front of the FT LA bracket attachment.

Adam at Screamin Lizard in Bedford, Texas installed my kit. You might give him a call and ask him about the exact details. Or speak with Gerry Pifer, the shop manager. They were all great guys, and I think their work has been excellent. I have had no problems.
