From someone on the site like 2 years ago... Never really asked if they were for a stock or
Lifted kj... And now I'm wondering... How do I know which arms I have??

I think the only different was the length or angle of them or whatever but for the most part looks wise they appear to look the same. I could be wrong though. Whats in the picture looks just like 4.5 I have that came with my JBA lift.

That's one filthy balljoint though.

The whole front and rear are about to get the bells and whistles... I just ordered moog EVERYTHING lol... Sway bar bushings, end links, inner and outer tie rod ends, upper and lower lbj's, rear upper bj, moog struts for the front and springs for the rear(only temporary), and new left and right CV's for the front including the passenger inner.

This on top of the new engine, rebuilding of my trans, and servicing my front and rear axles, diff, and driveshafts 6 months or so ago... Will leave her in pretty damn good shape

That's basically a new Jeep!!! :waytogo:

To answer the original question,must as Hedsic said the difference between the two arms is the center point distance from the balljoint to the mounting points, and I believe the angle of the balljoint.

I'm trying HARD!

Everyone I know keeps telling me to "move on" but she is as persistent as her owner I guess

My goodness that is a lot of work ahead with some $ invested.
How much with motor trans are u throwing into it?
How many miles are on the rig now?
I wonder about drive line from front & rear diff/transfer case seals/inspections as well.

 

[Joejeeper420]

She is 13 years old and has Almost 350k miles on her ... The stuff this time around was right under $800.00, The engine and everything else was a little more then 4 grand.

Hard to tell for sure, but comparing them to the pics of mine (standard), it looks like yours have a more angled ball joint mount.
My best guess is that yours are for a lifted KJ.

Although it could be just the angle of the photos
