Hey all,
XJ newb here. I just bought a lifted XJ. Its my DD. It has I believe a Rock Krawler like lift with three relocated control arms. Passenger side upper is not a part of the kit. Got my vehicle inspected and they wont pass without that fourth arm. I can put something on for the inspection and take it off shortly thereafter, but if I'm going through the work I might as well take the best approach. I can generally fab stuff. I am looking for opinions on whether it would be best to attach an upper control arm mount point to the lower arm turning this into a radius arm set up on the passenger side, or just use the oem upper mount point even though the upper and lower arms will not be parallel as the upper will be angled down. The oem mount seems like a bad idea, but it would certainly be easier.
Thanks,
redrock
