Lower Front Control Arms

[Burk24]

Any opinions on which brand is best
for 2009 JK 4DR lifted 3 inches

Evo or Currie. They both use Johnny joints on both ends. Evo can be adjusted on the jeep without removing.

Unless currie changed, they can not be adjusted on the jeep.

I just picked up a set of EVO lower control arms. Went back and forth as they are pretty expensive but i got thinking and said self, this is the last set you will have to buy.

Very heavy duty

you can see them in my build thread if you would like

Correct, just the evo can.

Correct, just the evo can.

They can? How? I run them and seems you have to drop the adjustable end out, spin the end then tighten the collar. :idontknow:

Wait, evo can't be adjusted while on the jeep?
I always thought you loosen the pinch bolt, turn the collar, then tighten the pinch bolt back up.

Loose pinch bolt, adjust collar in and out. It's adjustable on jeep

Yeah, when I put my lift on and set my caster. Are yours hard to adjust?

No. Luckily for me I had two good friends help with my install. So mine were adjusted for me.

Nice counter top

I purchased the currie ONLY because I could get all 4 to match and didn't see where EVO made all 4 "short" arms or I'd have bought theirs. I drive myself crazy with petty things like that. Well no instructions came with and it may be obvious but which end is frame end and axle end?

Adjustable is the axle end.
