When converting from the stock Kraton 8s exb a arms to rpm a arms any modifications need?

First I'll say, I wasn't a big fan of the RPM arms due to their flexible nature and general feel when driving. You may feel different. I did however notice a few things with my installation that were less than fun.
- "Tapping" the holes for the steering knuckle balls/post was extremely difficult and required a fair amount of strength and patience to both keep straight and seat properly.
- Shocks - I found it very difficult to fit the lower shock mount into the arm itself. I actually had to sand a bit on both the shock mount and the arm to make things fit.
- Hinge Pins - These were VERY snug and had to be tapped in with a mallet.

If you don't have any qualms with any of these things, go for it. Another thing to note is that if you want to use upgraded CVD shafts from m2c, you really shouldn't use these arms without limit straps or a stop inside of the shock body.

they aren't an upgrade and you will start bending dog bones if you do any jumping.
