ProRock 60 and Lock-n-Load Long Arms

I am currently running a 4.5” GC short arm lift with the DB3s in the rear with ProRock 60 axles. I would like to upgrade the front suspension to the long arm with lock-n-load. Can this be done with the ProRock 60 or will I need to go with the 4-Link long arm?

I did not. However Autoedits just installed this exact setup on his friends JKU. Just waiting to see how it works for him prior to ordering the Lock-n-Load arms for myself.

I was watching that video just the other day and then saw this thread and thought I'd ask your conclusion. I read on another forum that they were told the lock n load couldn't handle the weight of 1 ton's but surely that isn't correct.

They appear to be built well and look like they would handle the extra stress the weight of the axles and possible 40” tires would put on the frame mounted joints. I was more concerned about a possible clearance issue with the control arms but when I asked the company that said the had a clearance issue they said that they could not remember what the problem was.
After seeing the Autoedits video I could not see any issues. Hoping he will have a good review of everything once it is done.

I know that most with the dynatrac have went with the 4 link on the 60 and could not get the lock-n-load to work well. I got mine to work with the Fusion Super Duty 60 and very happy with it.

Just thought I would provide an update for those on this forum. I have installed the Lock-n-Load arms on my 2014 JKUR with the ProRock 60s with no issues. It flexes well on the rocks and drives much better on the street. The only down side is you will need to make sure your clearances are enough on the passenger side between the shock and the spring to allow for the flex when it is unloaded. The spring may get close enough to rub the shock body if there is not enough room. Found out the hard way and then adjusted caster a bit to move it further away.
