Re: ART arms

You can but with an 18" wheel or higher you are really going to start torquing hard on that end-link bolt. If you plan on laying out with an 18" wheel or larger, your bigger problem will be the shock tab hitting the frame. You'll need to cut it off and relocate it to the underside.

In hinde-sight: For the money, I am pissed that ART didn't do something about the shock tab, and that the powder coating it worthless. The damn RG of mine was plastic coated.

I will be switching to SD arms STAT when the funds are available. SD learned and corrected where ART fu cked up.................and the powder coating is better.

Re: ART arms

Mine doesn't hit with a 245/40R18. About the endlinks...you WILL bend endlink bolts. I tried a couple different lengths and they still bent. I made some endlinks with a heim joint and a clevis bolted to the LCA.

How much for you to make me a set of those? I have been trying to find something similar. Because I am tired of bending mine.

I have the stock spindles so I'm not laying skid plate. I did have 2" drop spindles on but took them off because the skid plate did lay. I have the AirBar that doesn't lay so it looked weird with the front down and the rear up. Plus I wanted to keep my fenders. I don't have the shock tab problem because I have ShockWaves and those arms don't have the tab.
