I believe they do, but just to make sure, look at the 3-bolts holding the LCA to the knuckle. If they make a triangle that has one side (draw an imaginary line from one bolt hole to the next) that is parallel to the edge of the LCA, then you're safe.

So if I choose to get these lca's i would have to got for the EP's correct? Also I'm gonna do my DC5 ITR 5 lug conversion and I would like to know if this will fit the DC5's LCA's stock? Which one is better Skunk's or F7's?
