Do I need Lower controll arm drop brackets if I already upgraded my lower controll arms with Rough Countrys tubular arms?

Do you have 3 inches of lift or 15?

AZFIRE

LOL Sorry I have a 4.5

Long arms.

He said he already bought new lowers. No need to run off and get longarms just yet.

Yes some drop brackets would help but certainly not necessary.

"long arms" are not the solution to everything. At 4.5" he will be totally fine with short arms....Jesus ...I'd say Long arms around 6-6.5", or control arm drop brackets. Maybe even long arms/cad brackets at 5.5", but even then you would still be ok with short arms.

Thanks for the help going to do long arms soon but looking into fabing front steering the stock stuff just doesn't seem to reliable. Any ideas?

I have a 6" lift and drop brackets. I'm not a huge fan of how they look. I figured I would hit them a lot, but I haven't once. And I have done a bit of hairy wheeling, disconnected the sway bar, etc. I think they do what they are supposed to do rather well, which is to level the lower arm for daily driving and extends my travel. But in a year or two, I will be getting a long arm upgrade. It's just not top on my list.

Getting the CAD brackets will make it ride better probably, but at your height you don't really "need" them. They made one heck of a difference in mine, rides/drives like a whole new truck since putting them on.

IF I had kept my 4.5 coils, since I cannot afford longarms right meow, I would have picked up some CAD brackets. Are the new arms you got adjustable? Because at your height + CAD brackets, requires a close to stock length LCA.
