the stepping of the arms would be easy, as for the pinion angle, well that is a different matter, where the arms are connected to the crossmember, is where my adjustability will be, but things can always change, if you had a set ride height in mind, you can set you pinion angle and weld them to match that, just a little more time, but not bad.
