Why did you install a long arm kit on stock height and think it wouldn't rub?, you have more travel up and down. From what I understand the long arms are used in conjunction with 3-6" lifts.

It was not a stock height truck at the time I put the long arm kit in, it had a 2 inch leveling spacers in. Synergy’s kit is good for 0 - 6 inches of lift. Long arms are good for more travel but are also good at giving a better ride for trucks with any amount of lift, but the better ride is very little at 2 inches and less. So the 3 - 6 inches would be better use of long arms. In other videos you will see I put a full 4 inch lift on the truck. The rubbing was due to the back spacing of the rims not any other factors. I replaced the rims with one that have 4.5 inches of back spacing instead of 5.5 inches the the other rims had. My buddy bought a new 2008 with 6 inches of lift with short arms and did not like the ride, he changed to a long arms kit and is much happier with the ride. You can watch my other videos to see other things that have been done to the truck.

I just installed the long arm kit on my dodge- the pan hard hard bar bracket is now hitting the coil. did you have the same issue? wondering if i can adjust the bar back 1/4 inch to clear the pan hard bracket

I had that same problem so I took and cut off a chunk of the bracket with a cut off wheel, made a piece of metal out of ¼ steel to fit in, welded it in to keep strength of the pan hard bracket. If you want, I just added your question on my facebook page with pictures of the mod.

@@PaezEddie Good to hear you fixed your problem. On the rims Unfortunately I had the same problem. The rims I originally had, had 5.5 inches of back spacing I ended up buying new rims with 4.5 inches of back spacing and they work to solve that problem

I measured the angle of the differential before and after and made sure it was close after. When It was all said and done I took it to a shop and had an aliment done. Before was 5.5 degrees, spec is 4 - 5 degrees, after, it was set to 4.5 degrees.
