Default adjustable control arms

wanting to recenter my front end after my 3in lift.

I've trying to decide its worth my time to fabing up a set up or if you guys know of a company that makes a resonable set. My search thus far has returned nothing but over priced heim joints, thick wall steel tubing and some paint and they still want 500+ a set.

When I leveled my front end, I went with the Rancho leveling kit. They included longer lower control arms and I really like the design. May hop over and check them out I am sure they have them on their site.

would I only need longer lower arms? its lifted with a 3in skyjacker coil spacers and by the way it looks the front axcel need to be moved forward roughly an inch.

That I don't know my friend. I would contact skyjacker and see what they have to say. Most lift kits included control arms so I would venture to say you need upper and lower control arms.

found a longer set from summit racing (skyjacker brand) for a 2-3 in lift for 148.00 bucks a set, not too bad. I'd have more than that buying heim joints and tubing and fabin them up myself.

How did those end up working? I know the gassers had different size bolts so just curious if they worked for you. That is a good price.
