Re: installing control arms
the new used car manager bought a wrangler at the auction that is all decked
out the lift kit is a 6 incher and the tires are 36" super swampers it has new
adjusable control arms and even the old mounts were cut off, new trac bars and
springs
the drive shafts have been updated with cardian slip joints it has all the
good stuff the owner was kinda pissed till he seen all the traffic it brought
in sitting half parked on a 5 "boulder outfront
