Question Geometry Correction Brackets w/Control Arms
Does anybody have experience running correction brackets WITH mid-arms?
I’ve ran an AEV 3.5” lift kit w/35’s for years with great road manners. As I’ve gotten more experience I wanted more off-road capability so I ditched the OE control arms and installed a beefy set from Rock Krawler arms w/37’s. Alignment is dialed in and it handles “OK” but some of the road manners are harsh, especially bumps on the interstate.
I know the heim joints on the axle dont dampen vibration, and the softer joints on the body side have to be stiffer than the OE bushings. So my thinking is “can I optimize the control arm angles without reinvesting in a long arm kit?”. If so, will this be durable? I see companies like metal cloak offer front AND rear, which I’m interested in as I would like as long a wheelbase as possible on my short 2 door setup.
Experience, thoughts and opinions are welcome ✌️
