Jeepin Al's arms should work much better for your situation as you will be able to lube the upper ball joints.

BTW, WELCOME to L.O.S.T. !!!
I wonder if you are our first visitor from Greece?

Later, JJ

I dont know if he is or not but its really hard to understand it.

I think his problem may be upper baljoint contact, if it is all he needs to make is a bumpstop like the franken lift comes with.

Nick,
Jeepin Al's A-arms are custom made with a different angle to compensate for the lift kit. You will be able to get proper alignment puting less tress on the BJ's. The balljoints are also greasable and replaceable.
