Need? No. You do not need a long arm kit to run this setup. Will it offer a better on pavement ride? Yes.

and does the evo long arm kit work with rear coil over kit or just evo lever. Im looking for the best long arm kit if its needed running 37s with bolt on coil over front and rear thank guys

The EVO long arm kit will work with standard coils, the bolt on coil over kit and the DTD with EVO Lever - basically everything. If you go with the EVO lever, you can also get the long arm kit with high clearance brackets.

ok so if i didnt go with evo lever in the rear than i can still use the high clearance long arm kit or they have a seperate kit for without the evo lever ? I think im def going with some kind of long arm kit because i want a good ride on and off road

Technically, you can only run the high clearnace brackets with the EVO lever. It can be done without it but, you would need to have new custom brackets installed on the axle.

Yes, the Double D. If you ever upgrade to an EVO Lever, they will give you high clearnace brackets for free.

I have the Double D and love it. After speaking with Chris at EVO, it sounds like the bolt on coilovers and the Double D long arm kit are basically made for each other. I plan on upgrading to the coilovers at a later date, so I just went with the basic Bilsteins for now. Awesome ride and handling. I highly recommend it.

Prime- did you bolt your long arms on or did you weld them in?
