Expert Reply:
If you cut the control arms stops off of your vehicle all of the steering and suspension components will wear out quicker and the vehicle might handle unpredictabley as you'll over extend not only your shocks but ball joints, tie rods, and cv axles. Best option is to replace the upper control arms with ones designed for lift kits.
