Getting ready to put 6.5 long arm kit in, just wondering if some one had some measurements to help get close when setting up control arm, any info on this would be great, thanks

I just put that kit on my rig (just the upgrade) and disovered that the measurements I was given by rough county in the kit did not work for my jeep. I put the arms at the exact lenth specified and my front tires were too far backwards and my pinion was pointing up too high. So I adjusted the lowers out until the tires looked more centered in the wheel well and then adjusted the uppers in until I had the pinion angle I wanted. Not sure why I needed to change it so much, but I love the way it drives and wheels now.
