Not really a worthwhile mod IMO, standard arms have enough adjustment.

But yes you do have to drop the diff carrier down,

I used standard arms at 2* on rear, 3.5* front no uneven wear whatsoever.

I used primarily for track.

What state is your geo in?

What rtab have you installed, limiter kit? Age of bushes etc.

Your wear issues could be down to poor alignment or worn bushes or combo of both?
