As the title states, I have a 4.5" lift, and I'm going to be buying the rustys long arm kit with the crossmember from someone who got it with their Rusty's 6.5" lift kit. I can't find instructions anywhere, but at 4.5" what length should I set both upper and lower long arms to? Thanks.

Also, should this be done with my adjustable track bar on to keep the axle in place? Or do I adjust the long arms by themselves and then install the track bar and adjust it accordingly?
