Default how good are DJM lower control arms???

well i was originally going to use Mcgaughys spindles for the front to drop my truck 2'', but i would have to pay to do it, my stepdad says he knows how to change control arms, so i think ima go with the DJM LCA, are they any good? i know i will need an alignment afterwards and thats no problem, just wondering if they are a quality product or not, thanks fellas

**** well now that im looking, i cant find just the LCAs for a 06, crap can anybody help me here???

I Have The 4" Lca's On My Truck. I Dropped The Front End In About An Hour And A Half. They Looked As Of Very High Quality Pieces Right Out Of The Box. I Am Very Impressed With The Lca's. They Come With New Lower Ball Joints, Shorter Sway Bar End Links, And New Sway Bar Bushings Also. I Would Recommend Them.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE BUILDING A 6.0 FOR YOUR ECSB? WHAT HAPPENED WITH THAT?

GOOD CHOICE DID YOU AT LEAST GET YOUR L/T'S OFF OF THE OTHER TRUCK BEFORE YOU GOT RID OF IT?

I WOULD RECOMMEND THE LCA'S TO ANYONE WHO ASKED. I THINK THEY ARE GOOD. AND EASY TO ALLIGN. I HAVE HAD MINE OVER A YEAR AND THE ALLIGNMENT IS PERFECT AND NO IRREGULAR WEAR ON THE TIRES. GET EM!!

I am running the 4" arms also and have no complaints about them. They are easy to bolt on and I had no problems aligning them. Many say control arms have a lot of bump steer, but I hardly notice it. This could be because I try to avoid all the bumps too.
