It will work, but the stock lower control arms will only fit on the lowest setting. They are too wide to fit into the middle slot.

id be doing the install for both myself, i was under the car installing my panhard bar and brace and took a look at what would be involved with the control arm/relo. bracket install while i was under there. im confident in the fact that i could do it in about an hour with a helping hand

Yeah. It's not a very hard install. You might as well do both at the same time though because its only around $100 for the LCA's after you already have the brackets. You probably would be at the lowest setting anyways.
