Lower control arm?? It's adjusted by the arm to frame bolts, but you don't wanna mess with that without alignment.

You put it on yourself, did you get it aligned after install? When you lift the front you always have to do an alignment.

Like I said, to adjust it you have to crank on the lower control arm bolts as they pivot. You take is to a 4wd outfitter and have them do it, that's where I go because I don't trust other shops anymore. Them not even telling you how off it was and there was nothing they could do leads me to believe that they, in fact, did not do an alignment and jipped you outa some green.

its a 2wd is there adjustment on those blots because i didnt see anything.
i wasnt charged for the alignment lol thank god. but yeah i have went to a 4x4 shop they said nothing can be done. i was thinking of purchasing new upper control arms again where i can remove the ball joint and replace it with a adjustable one.
