Long arm is better all around. Better flex off road, better ride on road. Control arm angles have alot to do with on/off road performance

Yeah a long arms off road makes a huge difference. The articulation of the axle is great compared to the short arm. I do not know how they do on the road but I cannot believe that it would be bad at all. If you can afford to buy the long arm kit I would go with it!
