Got a RK 2.5 lift with the high clearance LCA's. They're beefy and was able to dial back in my castor. My steering was very flighty due to low castor. These solved my problem and my rig drives great.

I get zero squeaks from mine. I run the X-Factor so I have all 8 control arms. As far as beefiest is concerned, if I ever bend or break one of these arms, it will be the least of my problems. LOL!! They are heavy duty.

I run the 2.5 max travel and love the entire thing.... If you ever bend a rk arm, chances are there is nothing left of your jeep, they make stock arms look like noodles! Here is a quick pic flexed on an rti ramp.

i just got a set of RK LCAs today, i have OME HD 2" on JKU with no added weights, so it's most likely 2.5" right now. what adjustments needed to be made? measurements?

x2... I added the RK adjustable LCA's and trackbar to my TF 2.5" lift and it's night and day difference in steering. No more wandering all over the road for me. I picked mine up from JeepAdOns and had a great customer service experience. IMHO all 2.5" kits should come with these!!
