Lots, but I wonder if that would do much. Are there any bull bars which don't interfere with the radar sensor for the cruise? All the ones I looked at would block that or the led bar.

Got my lift kit in from Rocky Road...now just waiting for the money and time to get it done. Also, my wife is currently 36 weeks pregnant so she says "NO" until after she has the baby!

That's the one. The stock control arms don't last too long with this lift (3 years) might as well get the arm.

Koning: Great info in your posts about your lift! I've seen you mention that the arms don't last long after a lift a couple of times. I'm curious why you say this. Are there many others who have lifted their vehicle and had the control arms crap out?

Thanks for the info, and great looking Durango!
