Lower control arms, length-vs-width
Hey everyone, I just came into some lower control arms at a Volkswagon parts meet, lol go figure. They are 19 inches eye to eye, skyjacker brand. I am just wondering how much lift they are made to run with, I am planning on going higher and I can tell I will need new upper arms also, just need to know what to buy. Thanks for any help,
-Phil
