Would I be okay to just purchase front lower adjustable control arms?

[ChrisTJ98]

What I have is basically stock suspension maybe later I will add some lift. Since I am re gearing a Dana 30 hp which only reason I did the hp was to get away from the crush sleeve and to build it and be able to drive my jeep tj still. My question instead of buying all adjustable control arms would it be okay to purchase just the front lower adjustable control arms? Reason being the Dana 30 hp has no way to adjust caster like a cam style bolt of the Dana 30 low pinion. Would it be okay to purchase just the adjustable lower control arms or would I really need both adjustable upper and lower control arms to set pinion angle and caster?
Thanks

I purchased adjustable uppers, as I need to rotate the pinion forward towards the front of the car, and I think adjustable lowers may run out of minimal travel.

I am also prioritizing pinion angle (the shakes) over caster.

Do you have a Dana 30 hp as well?

Yes, and I have a belly up skid, so my pinion angle is worse than the OP's.

What does OP stand for?

I just installed adjustable LCA on mine when I installed the 3” lift. It is my understanding that adjustable LCA’s could be used. When adjusting the LCA it adjust the caster.

I assume you are referring to the OP in profile picture? I believe it indicates “original poster”.

These crazy a** ads flashing deleted what I wrote haha.

As I was saying if I had known I was going to be going down this rabbit hole 2 years ago I would have gone with a lift instead of H&S springs. It all changed when I found a 06 Dana 44 rear out a LJ. I’ll order upper and lower control arms for tbe front when I install this d30hp. I may look into a spacer lift I don’t time will tell. Thanks
