Alright. I just got a pretty good deal on here from another member. RC 3" lift with full leaf packs. Comes with new lower control arms. I plan on keeping the 2" lift that is on the jeep and adding the 3" to it for a total of 5". Just ordered a new track bar and t-case drop kit.
My question is this, does anyone know what the length of the new control arms are on a RC 3" lift and will this work with 5" of lift or do I need to get some new control arms as well? And if so, do I need both lower and upper?
Before anyone says something about a SYE, I will get one when I have more money. Hoping to get by on the t-case drop for now.

That's pushing it hight wise for the stock uppers and I would shim the lowers forward just a little but otherwise it sounds like it will work

Alright guys I just purchased a 6.5 RC long arm kit today with the longer drive shaft an sye kit. My question is once I install everything will I have to extend the fuel line? The new brake line comes with the kit but I've read nothing regarding the fuel line
