I just swapped the RE shorties for the LongArms and all I can say is that it should be a criminal offense to even think about installing short arms on a 4.5" lift.

The difference is more than I could have even imagined (I was told....but i really couldn't realize) the difference is amazing !

The ZJ now rides....like a ZJ only taller and with the standard quirks that go with lifting a Jeep. As an extra bonus the squirley death wobble is gone too (hope I didn't jinx myself)!

FWIW....don't even consider the short arms for a 4.5" lift.

Photos to follow after the bugs are all sorted....

Cheers ! 8)

Pretty familiar dirt...but dirt none the less
Lift worked really well...did some measuring and need to cut the wheel wells and find some flares (I hear XJ bushwackers work pretty well...anybody got a line on some fronts ?)
