I need to get adjustable LCA's and wanted to see what arms most of you use and/or recommend for a taller lift(6-7")? Long arms aren't an option due to budget constraints. Hopefully sometime in the future though

I, along with many others, have or are running tires bigger than 31's on stock axles...i've ran 32's for over a year and wheeled it pretty hard along with daily driving ran it for over 5,000 miles without any problems...also have ran 33's on stock axles for a few months and yet again, no problems, just a little sluggish....IMO 35's are the limit for stock axles for light wheeling and mall crawling, if u wheel hard 33's would be a good point for heavier axles...yet again this is my opinion and my experiance, some cases may be different.
