looking for long arms

Where can I purchase just a long arm conversion for my rig? I'm happy with the superlift on my truck I just want to upgrade to long arms. Can Thuren, Kore or any other manufacturer make me a kit that will work with my current setup? I really dont want to get into changing too much. My only other plans are to add a set of king shocks and some traction bars.

A true long arm kit with both arms being longer is a one way deal usually requiring removal of the old lower control arm mounts. RockKrawler and TopGun have them. You could do the BD or ProComp kits that have one short arm mounted usually in the stock location of the lower control arms as your new upper control arms, then lower longer control arms mounted to the frame.

i just went from the Superlift kit to the Pro-comp and both arms have been relocated, not just one, the factory arm mounts are cut off the frame.

I was reading his post earlier. I dont mind having to modify the frame/mounts for the new arms. I just dont want to ditch the rest of the front suspension.

I appreciate the responses guys. I didnt even think to look at TGC stuff. I think that is the route I will go. There stuff looks pretty well built and has some flash to it which is just what Im after.

I installed a set of radius arms on my truck and they are awesome. I will try to get some pics up here pretty quick.
