    Does anyone have any comments on the Solo Motorsports +2" kit? Looking to buy it but I'm told I'll need a spacer for the lower arm. Just looking for advice if it's a good kit.

    Yes
    Speaking from very recent personal experience with that kit - if it is a 4x4 - yes he will need some 1/4" spacers to go between the OE BJ adapt and the bottom of the spindle. The Solo kit has the uniball in the LCA and the spindle sits low over the LCA and the clearance for the bottom of the CV to the LCA is not sufficient as it droops. You will also need to buy qty -4 10mm longer bolts since you are adding the spacers. Use OE style CV boot crimp on clamps as well, a regular hose clamp will hit the LCA as it droops.

    Edit - in case my explanation sucks here is a photo, you can see I have 2 washers stacked in there right now. Solo sliced some solid spacer out of tubing for me and I have not had time to install them yet :

    Other than the couple extra things needed, have you liked your setup?
    Also, did you do the work or take it to solo?

    Will get pics soon, I'm busy with work the next few days. They have one desert day trip, and street miles besides that. Calving is 12 comp 10 rebound if I remember right. One has some scratches on the top cap but nothing major.
