I have a three inch rough country lift without the control arms. What would I absolutely have to have in order to raise it another inch and a half. I want a more aggressive look and more clearance for my offroading needs.

You won't absolutely need a dropped pitman arm, but it would sure help in the war against bump steer!

its a cheap fix anyways! ill just need to keep my eye on the road a little more and avoid on coming traffic i think extended brake lines are a must tho they seem like they could get tugged at 4.5 during flex....
