Long arm?

[Wwildman]

Well after my wheeling event on sunday I pushed the left lower control arm mount on the body back about 1 inch so I am going to up grade from short arm to long arm .
I would like to know what kit do you like best and why .
1. Rustys
2.Rubicon
3. Rough country
4. Clayton
5.Teraflex
6.Iron Rock critical path
Also which one has the best bang for the buck .

Ghost can tell you more about getting some built from Andy (IronMan 4x4).

I would put the Clayton up against any similar set-up. I love mine.

T&T. I like the way the mounts tuck up out of harms way and it comes with a built in tcase skid. Downside, if the tcase has to come out, the lower links have to come loose. If I get a long arm kit it will be a T&T. Just my .02.

X2 I run the TnT Y-link setup and am very happy with it. Great clearance for tires, even on stock wheels. The arms mount up high, above the bottom of the "frame". The belly pan gives 1" more clearance than stock.

Andy is a great guy and great fabricator. He worked for a company that built truck bodies before he started Ironman. He even had to build some stuff for the NC state DOT their. He does not have them listed on his site but I know he builds them. He did all the fab on my 3 link and I did all the math. The biggest problem I have with the long arm kits is that most of them mount in such a way that you have to drop the LA mounts to pull a tcase or work on a clutch. If I ever go to a rear 4 link he will do it.

Not with the Clayton.

Exactly! I was leaning towards their crossmember with andy arms (ironmanfab) till I dropped the 203/205 in. Then everything went out the window! :confused1

I like the T&T as well. It is a great system IMHO.
