New Rough Country long arms... Good or Bad?
Just saw that Rough Country came out with a new long arm upgrade kit for 600 bucks. Has anyone used their products? Are they any good? Was thinking about going with the Rock Krawler 3 link LA set up or maybe this new Rough Country LA kit. Cant beat 600 bucks.
Heres a link to the Rough Country LA set up http://www.roughcountry.com/jeep_xj_689U.html

not sure about these kits were you cut off the factory lwr control arm mounts. what if you get another xj and wanna swap the lift or somethin unforseen in the future comes up, iron rock offroad has a 600$ 3 link long upgrade that you don't have to remove the mounts, uses a three piece crossmember so you service the t-case or trans with out unbolting your cntrl arms. but i do like the t-case skid plate with RC kit.

I just ordered Rough Country 4.5" LA X-series kit from Morris 4x4 center with SYE & a rear CV driveshaft. Should be here about a week I'll post pics before during & after you just can't compare RC's prices with forum discount a little over $1600 shipped to my door.

Talk to Cliff. He just ordered his and will be installing soon. It is a spankin new item so you might not find much on it. Cliff does his stuff right. He'll give ya a good and accurate opinion on it. Here is a link to his thread
