Which Arms Should I Get?
Im in the process of tracking down my wobble on my "new to me" dana 30. It was in full out DW when i had it installed with my IRO double sheer track bar and after i got it aligned the DW is gone but it still wobbles at 42 MPh or when i hit a bump hard enough. It hasnt gone back into DW and it corrects itself quick but its still there. Im going to check my TREs and ball joints tomorow when it stops rainig but im also looking for new control arms. Im at 3.5 inch and ive been doing research on these:

http://www.ironman4x4fab.com/Products/LCA-F.html
http://www.roughcountry.com/jeep_xtr...trol-arms.html ---would these be too long?
Which one of these control arms would you pick? Im on a tight budget with school so i cant spend crazy amounts of money and dont go offroading TOO much but hopefully when the front suspension is better i will be going more.
Thanks for all your input!

Out of those choices, I'd go either IRO or Ironman 4x4.
Get your wheels balanced if you haven't done so. Believe it or not, one of the most common causes of DW and it's often overlooked

I had the rough country adjustable arms and i thought they are garbage. Their poorly machined the joints dont hold up for dookie and the jam nut never stays in place no matter how big of a wrench and cheater bar you have. To my understanding IRO makes very good quality products never ran any of their stuff but have herd plenty of positive things when i build next jeep i will be using some of their products

I was planning on getting the Iron Man 4x4s but now that i see that IRO's straight adjustables are actually factory length whereas Iron Man's start at 16"s. I defiantly plan on getting IRO now! But either or seem great

i have the IRO upr adjustable and bent,fixed lowers. i just bought them last week along with JKS qkr discos. The other companies are fine to use too, i chose iro because of their awesome customer service. and they have excellent products.
just make sure when you install them. that you don't tighten everything down until the truck is resting under its own weight.

Ok thanks for all the feedback! I'm going to either go with IRO or iron man arms. Rock paper scissors it is!
