I'm going to look at some RE 3.5" springs & RE drop brackets in a few hours.
So I need some quick answers.
I know theres a speadsheet somewhere online that shows the lengths of arms with & without drop brackets. I'm curious if anyone can find it for me?


I'm curious about using stock arms with DB on a 3-3.5" lift I guess..I'm curious if they will be to long or to short?

Golden! Thank you so much. I couldn't find it for the life of me!

Just found the one I needed..

It shows stock arms are good for a 4" lift, anything lower than 4" doesn't show lengths...I'm assuming because the arms will have a reverse rake(lower in the back) on them?, instead of the slight rake (leaning forward) like normal.

 

Ok so from what I'm gathering...
Arm length with a 3-4" lift should be about 1" long than stock. But with drop brackets they should 4" shorter??

Let me ask this, will my stock arms be too long for a 3.5" lift with drop brackets? I'm searching google right now with no answers...

 

for my RE 5.5 inch short arm kit with drop brackets, my arms were stock length.
so you may end up being just a tad bit long for only 3.5 and RE drop brackets.

the RE drop brackets drop the mounting point 4 inches. that's where you seem to be getting confused.

you should be fine with stock length arms tho.

 

Alright guys, decided against it. I only want 31's & don't like a huge wheel gap! I don't have flares already, haven't cut yet..waiting to see how 3" & 31's look before I cut, or just buy new flares.
I'll end up running the Rusty HD 3" springs...going that route cause I have no sways front or rear, so the stiffer coils should be decent! A little stiff but no big deal.
I was gonna go with a Rouch country series 2 lift with full packs, but for almost $700 it didn't seem like a good deal. So I bought OME leafs, the 2.5" ones & new longer brake lines. Going to get some Jk shocks tonight for $20.. Now just need some coils & I'll be good to go.
Plus I wanted stiffer coils because I run no sway bars front or rear, so I felt as if I was sacrificing by going with the RC stuff..just wanted something stiff. Anyway thank you guys for all the help!

I'm also looking for new or used lca that are 16" eye-eye.
