I’m going to do my ranger front end lift in phases because I have 3 hours to do this in a garage with a lift at a time. Phase 1: loosen and retighten everything so it’s ready to go for install day (tie rod ends, sway bar links, new ball joints). Phase 2, grind. Phase three install.

Anyway....I’d like to keep the control arm grinding to a minimum to reserve max possible strength.

Anyone have a pic of their conservative grinding of lower control arms?

Got a 03 coil suspension ranger xlt 3.0.

Thanks!

Thought I would update: I found that Fabtech has their install PDF instructions online. The pics are excellent, and it shows you that a lot of other pics on google image search have cut way too much off. Just 1/4 inch on the very lip of the arm is ground off.
