    Ok guys here are the pictures, a couple of things I noticed curie didn't include longer breake lines. Maybe because it's a short arm kit. Also they don't use cambolts or a drop pitman arm what are your thoughts

    Nice!!

    Cambolts shouldn't be needed with adjustable control arms. What height is the lift? A drop pitman arm my not be needed. No brake lines? That seems odd, but again if the lift height isn't huge then brake lines my not be needed but I would want brake lines.

    What does everyone else think?

    Um...what?

    Extended front brake lines - yes
    Cam bolts - better without them since you've got adjustable arms
    Drop pitman arm - not needed

    Throw away the Cam Bolts and buy some Brake Lines.

    Thanks Greg its a 4" lift. Currie says 35s should be no trouble with a 1" body lift.

    I'm not Greg, but. . .
    Curries 4" lift is probably very similar to the RE 3.5" lift.
    With a 1" body lift, you should have plenty of room for 35s.
    Don't forget the Motor Mount lift to keep driveline vibrations to a minimum.
