2wd Fabtech control arms on a 4wd?!?
Heres the deal....
I have a friend of a friend looking to get rid of some 2wd fabtech control arms. He says he bought them for his 2000 4WD to get an extra couple inches of lift but sold it before he put them on. I've done some searching but found nothing about putting 2WD control arms on a 4WD rig....any thoughts?? Thanks for reading!

It looks like the control arms for a 2W drive Edge (torsion bar setup) and 4x4 may be the same but will not interchange with the coil spring setup. If you have the part numbers I'd call fabtech Tech Support, Toll free: 877-432-2832 or email them at info@fabtechmotorsports.com and see what they say.

The dimensions are slightly off between the two. I remember an ex member here went by the username "D" tried to use the 4x2 UCAs on his edge and it wouldn't work. He ended up custom fabbing his own.
