It should list 2 number +1+2 the first one is how much wider and the second is much farther forward from stock. like in my sig -1 +2 so they are -1 inch wider and 2 inches out the front.

dragbanshee Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 So if you get +2 up1 you're going to be 4" wider than stock and 1" forward, which means longer wheel base. Wicked is a pretty good arm for the money, you can find them on ebay and Tim the owner is a good guy to deal with. Those arms with some works is a pretty good setup, I have them on mine. Do a search and you will find all kinds of info on them and others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
