I had made a thread about this already but cant seem to find it now. My question is with fully adjustable control arms on a lifted xj what is the best way to extend the arms after adding more lift I just remember how annoying it was getting the axle all hooked up when I did the lift so id like to hear of a quick and efficient way

did you search? i did and found the answer really quickly

do you really think I made two threads and didnt search?yes I did all I came up with was adjusting the caster bolts which is not what im trying to do so why dont you stop being a smartass and post the link

Hey me too!!!

okay well I searched before and after posting so is it too much to ask for what you found it takes less effort to copy and paste than for you to type stuff like that incase you didnt realize

heres 3 and took me 2 minutes.

being serious now. did whatever brand you bought your control arms through, did they send you measurements?

a quality suspension company send rough estimates on control arm length to center your axle

Take off the control arms and adjust them to correct length. Put them back on. Not that hard.

Why can't people do this what so ever????????

x2 this pretty much sums it up

#1 doesnt help because my lift is already in and im just adding a spacer #2 I dont have long arms and #3 Im not worried about how long they need to be I can figure that out I need to know if I say put it on jack stands take off both lowers at the axle and do... or disconnect the track bar than do...
you get what im saying?

and shift the axle how though after they are adjusted to however long I need

they dont want have to work for it. they want it spoon feed to them. here on CF no one searches and thats why theres the same question asked 400 times a day. maybe is the mods actually did something to correct this that it would change. doubt it. the mods would rather spoon feed

what are you saying? you want to know how to unbolt your control arms? how to loosing the nut on the arms so you can adjust them?

its not like this is my first ****ing thread im not an idiot you two are illiterate and dont understand my question apparently thanks anyway

Post #8 answers your question

so put it on jackstands under the "frame rail" unbolt both lcas and extend them than what is the best ****ing way to push the axle itself
