I've been "searching" and heard the wj lower control arms were a little bit longer then the stock zj's. Then on another thread they said they were bigger but the length between the holes were the same it just the arms beefy-er and make a better ride. Any one know the correct answer ?

JK control arms
From what I remember reading these are not a direct swap and you need new brackets to make them work.
I used some rear upper JK control arms to replace my lowers on my ZJ. I measured them to be 3/4" longer. The ends are a little bit narrower so I used some washers to take any slop outs. I have only replaced my rears at this time but have another set in the garage to swap out the front lower control arms as well.
