I recently bought a Ford 9" and was wondering if I need to put adjustable control arms. Thanks.

Hello, if the brackets for the control arms are in the right spot you don't need adjustables unless like melloelky stated you need to change your pinion angle. Hope that helps.

Hello
I always suggest anytime you go with a aftermarket rear end. To go with at least a single adjustable set up. Some aftermarket rears have there mounting locations offset compared to others. And when you go with a rod end or a roto joint. They will make up for the articulation that is need for the offset and eliminate any binding issues.
