Do they live up to the hype? It's been on my mind for awhile now. I have a good short arm set up now. About 6" in front with R.E. adjustable upper and lower arms. Adjustable track bar, all that stuff. So I would really only need the arms. I like the way what I have now works. Is the benifit of a long arm kit worth the hassle? Does it make the suspension too out of balance to the front? Help a brother out guys!!

 

If you are sitting at 6" that means your CA angles are horid. I would go for the LA kit, it will ride considerably better on the road because it will help correct your angles.

 

I have been looking at a lot of different systems to see which one caught my eye. I like the belly pan system that comes with the TNT set. Does anyone have experience with these systems? Good, Bad, Ugly!!

 

Make great equipment, when I go LA TnT will be the way that I go

 

I've been looking at the unibody stiffeners they have as an upgrade. It looks like they know their stuff. Not to highly priced either!!

 

If a LA kit isn't what you want or plan to use, you can go with another option which is drop brackets from rough country. These are quite popular now and i'm seeing that they improve the ride quality alot and is a cheap and easy upgrade.

 

Is there a minimum hight requirement by going to the LA system?

 

TnT's website specifies 4"min

 

i dont' think there is a minimum but if your low and you homebrew a LA kit, and you go higher, your angles will increase agian...i've seen LA kits on 3"

 

I'd say buy Clayton's long Arm, they also have a Coil conversion for the rear of the XJ's...

 

When I decide to do long arms I'm pretty sure I'm going Rock Krawler.

They make some good stuff, I am still on the fence but leaning towards TnT.

 

It will also be easier for a front tire to climb an obstacle when it's at full droop if you have a long arm lift. I run a 6" Full Traction long arm on my TJ and my ride quality remained very near stock.

 

Be carefull with Rock Krawler there joints have been known to break...
