Thanks phil! Ya she's come alng way in the 2 months I've had it. Now I'm just waiting for this paycheck so I can get the rear trackbar bracket. Before anyone says just get an adjustable one are you going to pay for it? Didn't think so. So that's my plan as of now and hopefully getting 32s because I have a lot of room

Short arms aren't significantly longer and you won't really notice much difference. Long arms aren't really needed till you get over 4.5" though. Whats the matter with the 31s? You say they aren't cutting it? LOTS of us are rolling 31s with no issues and they do me just fine...

well im getting short arms because the ride up front is just horrible and i got em for 55$ how can u beat that. Idont know the 31s just seem small, maybe because mine have liek 30% tread lol
