I really like the long arms I got from rustys, they are strong as hell and they were a good price. I modified an IRO 3 piece crossmember to take the place of the rustys one piece, just had to cut the side mounts to fit inside the rustys frame braces. I got the high clearance LA's so they have a bend in em, I think they are the same price if you get straight arms or high clearance.

i don't see his custom long arms on his site anymore. possible he doesn't make them anymore. you will have to call or email him to ask.

I think I have been talked into the Clayton kit. Now just have to decide on what to do with the track bar and upgrade the steering. It's all junk.

I would get a 4-link setup from either Full-Traction, BDS, RockKrawler, or Synergy if you were gunna be doing more high speed than crawling. Or get a 3-link setup from Clayton, RockKrawler, or Synergy if you are gunna be doing more crawling than highspeed.
Personally I want to run a Clayton 3-link, deaver coils/leafs, synergy track bar, and Fox 2.5'' shocks
crawl everywhere, then jump to the next spot

The craziest insane buggies all run 3 link fronts for the most part. They're fine on a Cherokee, provided the upper CA bolt is upgrades. upgraded. In these kits, it is.
