Has anyone here installed the RE control arm drop kit? I assume it's too big of a job to do at one of the shop work days (~4 hours)? Any helpful tips you can share? Thanks.

Nope, no first hand knowlwedge, but Jerry's got the tools to handle this project.

Yes, but I'm concerned about the install taking longer than his shop will be open for us.

I've done a couple by myself, and would figure 4 hours by hand and alone..

Great, so if I could get some help then I could probably get this done at one of the shop days. Thanks!

BTW, does Wheel It Off-Road do over the knuckle steering conversions?

My new one isn't going to bend. My dad is building it from 1 7/16" 4140 alloy :)

They only bend when you build them out of sheetmetal tubing. :D
