What is the best long arm kit for your money?
I'm thinking about going with a 5.5"/6.5" long arm kit with 33"/34"ers x12.50's. So if anyone has pics with that kind of set up. That will help to.

 

id go rustys long arm kit. be aware its spend to go long arm. theirs sell for i think 7 or 800 bucks. stay away from tera flex, its a joke and 600 gets u only lower long arms. check sky-jacker or rubicon xpress

 

that all depends on whether it's just a front, or a rear coil conversion kit. then how much it's gonna cost to install it.
some are weld in, while others are a bolt in. (rusty's) has a great design for a good price. and his arms are beeeefy. good for a do it yourself type application.

in my opinion, the clayton kit is the best design. it is a weld in setup, and has a great removable center crossmember section. this is what i have. installation only took a few hours, and that was messing with the upper arm on the one side.

i can take pics of mine this weekend if you want.

 

try tnt customs, or claytons offroad.

 

Mine!

I built my own.

 

rustys- seen too many of his parts fail to ever consider his longarms
teraflex-garbage in everyones opinion
skyjacker- doesnt make a longarm
iron rock offroad- garbage imo, many reasons

fulltraction 4 link- spendy but a good setup
rock krawler 3 link- most inexpensive system i would consider running
tnt/treks- comes with a nice belly skid and high clearance arms, probably the nicest setup out there
clayton- nice and as strong as it gets, but low clearance
rubicon express- spendy, but a solid system

 

Hey KTM, why is iron rock off road's kit garbage? I'm curious on why i hear it's not a very good kit. I tried finding some who actually used it and did find a few but none of them actually explained the positives and negatives. All they say is that it works.

 

thx guys, still if anyone has any pics. So i can figure out what size tires im going to upgrade to.

 

With a long arm kit, Id go 35's. I run 35's on a 4.5" short arm but my fenders are hacked. When i do long arm it though, im gonna add the 7.5" RE coils and the 4.5" leaves cause Ive got some 37" IROKs waitin on me



Oh and heres 4.5" with 35s

 

I have a Rusty's 8 inch long arm up front and I'm doing a 505 Performance 4 link coil conversion in the rear of mine after the 1st of the year... Check those guys out. I think they make a full kit for the XJ.

 

Who did your side bars? Im looking to that soon as well.

 

 

Theyre homemade

 

Sweet. they sell that?

IMO, tnt,clayton,RK.

 

its built upside down.

if someone can present me a reason why IROs design makes any sense in comparison to TNT, im all ears.

it goes out of its way to kill your clearance essentially. and last i heard was basically non adjustable.
