    anybody know if you can just use them as just lower control arms have them on there now but they wont hold pinon angle and dont want to weld to new rear? will this jack with pinon angle from stock?

    doen't the southside mounting braket move the mounting point.
    if it does i would say the arms are shorter wicth would put the pinion angle pointing at the floor of the car.

    move straight down about 2-3 inches. just put 12 bolt in and everything bolted right upexcept sway bar it hits hog head on 12 bolt. guess it is bigger. have to investigate further. had to put shim in between lower control arm and its mount because the bars are 1 inch narrower than stock arms. angle not sure have not checked yet but am goin to get adj uppers soon.

    arms are same length center of holes as stock so that not the problem.
