It is easy to install "completely badass strongest ever arms!" but you will need to make sure you have a JJ on at least one end of the arm to take some of the stress off of the mounts. By removing the weak stock arms, you have removed the weakest link of the design so the next weakest link is open for faliure, that would be the mounts. replacing a bent control arm is much easier than replacing a frame mount on the trail. A few options are to reinforce the mounts, get arms with JJs or make sure a buddy has a welder on the trail if one comes off (or all three). jkwalkercchs 10-04-2009, 04:31 PM yep the mounts are sure to fail get some off clayton thats what i plan on doing there beefy mudskpr 10-04-2009, 06:47 PM yep the mounts are sure to fail get some off clayton thats what i plan on doing there beefy x2. Get the clayton's. JJ in both ends and strong as hell. | |
