Has anyone moved the mount for the lower forward A Arm slightly forward vs buying $1000+ new arms from a fabricator? It seems very simple, and looking at the stock mount any new welded mount should be a lot more sturdy.

Not a suspension/alignment guy, but if you move the lower forward, don't you have to move the upper forward as well? Or, maybe I was misunderstanding what you are saying. haha

Have a good day

You should not need to move the top - the ball joints and rubber shock mounts will allow for the slight forward flex/movement you would get. Same applies to when you only install forward a arms - they only include the lowers not the uppers.

Alignment will be off but should be able to be adjusted by adjusting the tie rods out slightly.

Was not looking to be the guinea pig, but may have to be if no one else has tried it.

Why I said that ;)
If its not in the search, its prob not been done.
Aftermarket arms are typically better cuz u can adjust camber and with stockers you can't.
