Hi

I've been asking that question '' Long Arm or Short Arm'' on my local 4x4 site.

Everybody answer that long arms are better. I know that it's true for other Jeeps, but on the JK the Arms are already long, compare to older jeeps.

My Jeep is my daily so stability on the road is important but I'm also doing a lot of trail.

I want to go with the Fabtech 5'' Short Arm system or the 5'' Crawler System (Long Arm)

I am also planning to change my tires for SSR series 37 ''

Since the long Arm is more expensive, Is is worth the difference on the JK model.

Thanks
