The JeepFord arms are legal in Australia since they are one piece which is a big plus. The Rubicon Express arm are not legal due to them having no rubber at the jonny joint end.

Our arms are an awesome bit of kit Hally. Allowing adjustment on the vehicle is a big plus and they are now 10% off!!!

The shocks "should" limit the droop on all versions - there is no other intentional droop limiting built in. If that's not the case.......

Then the LCA mounts at the diff will bind on standard arms.
Then the CV joint at the trasfer case will run out of angle and damage itself.

So - make sure the shocks do limit droop before something more expensive does - especially if you fit aftermarket LCA's that don't clash with the LCA diff mounts.
