this was also verified on a build on pirate4x4. This concern was brought up because the AAM axle bracket had a larger distance on the upper and lower control arms. the further the distance between the control arms at the front axle end than the frame end allowed for stronger stability/pinion angle during articulation-as mel just stated. some guy (search pink ram on pirate) swapped a front AAM axle into a 2nd Gen dodge on that build thread
having adjustable upper and lower arms would be ideal. I will probably shorten the uppers and just make them adjustable when my bungs come in. .. for now.[COLOR="Silver"]
