Questions on 4.5 inch lift

[Lloydrage]

hello everyone. I just installed a 4.5 inch lift on a gladiator and had a few questions. Its kind of a Frankenstein lift. Its EVO and Teraflex.

Front End
Falcon Shocks
Currie Rock Jock Track Bar
EVO Drop Bracket for Control Arms - Factory Control Arms
Factory Sway Bar Links
EVO bump stops
EVO 4.5" Springs
No Brake Line Extensions
No Limiting Strap

Rear End
Falcon Shocks
EVO 4.5" Springs
EVO Bump Stops
EVO Sway Bar Links
EVO Rear Track Bar Bracket
NO Drop Bracket for Control Arms - Factory Control Arms
No Brake Line Extensions
No Limiting Strap

Do I need to install a Carrier Barring Spacer?

Do I need limiting straps?

Do I need to replace my control arms ?

Do I need brake line extensions?

Any input???

I will be installing the 4.5" EVO lift tomorrow morning. I will let you know about the brake line extensions and limiting straps. I bought front lower and rear upper CAs.

Yes you will need brakelines in the rear. The front will be fine if you remove them from the control arms. If you run drop brackets lower front arms aren’t 100 percent necessary but help with getting better caster angles for better road manners and if you bought the correct shocks you shouldn’t need limiting straps.

With 4.5” springs a carrier bearing spacer isn’t 100% necessary if you got adjustable rear upper arms but again does help to get a better angle on the driveshaft. It mainly depends on your rear shocks length and how much droop you achieve

The front OEM swaybar links will need to be updated to longer EVO ones to accommodate your lift.
