The length adjusts from 385 to 470 mm, and the supplier says they are good for lifts up to four inches. The supplier lists them for the Jeep Wrangler TJ, the Cherokee XJ and the Grand Cherokee ZJ. Easy Life Markets sells the two arms with four bolt sleeves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe front axle on these Jeeps is located by links running back to the frame, and the lower pair does most of the work of holding the axle in position front to back. Lift the Jeep and the fixed-length factory arms pull the axle backwards and tilt it, which changes the caster angle and the way the steering returns to centre. An adjustable arm lets you set the length to suit the lift, so the axle sits where it should under the wheel arch.

The supplier states that the arms come with metal sleeves in two inner diameters, 14 mm and 16.5 mm, to suit M12, M14 and M16 bolts, and asks buyers to choose carefully. The sleeve sits inside the bushing and the mounting bolt passes through it. Use the sleeve that matches the bolt at each mount on your vehicle. A sleeve that is too large lets the bolt move in the joint, which wears the bracket and makes the arm knock. Measure your existing bolts before you start, and do not assume both ends of the arm use the same size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier lists the pair for:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJeep Wrangler TJ, 1997–2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJeep Cherokee XJ, 1986–2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJeep Grand Cherokee ZJ, 1993–1998\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier's title names the Wrangler TJ for 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2002, while the application list gives the wider 1997–2006 range.

Polyurethane lasts well but likes to be kept clean. Hose mud out of the joints after off-road use and check the pivot bolts for tightness now and then. If a squeak develops, a suitable polyurethane-safe grease on the sleeve usually cures it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Pair Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is for owners of lifted TJ, XJ and ZJ Jeeps who need to correct axle position and caster, for people replacing bent or worn factory arms with something adjustable, and for workshops that fit lift kits.
