Rustys steering sucks period.
But I still recommend everything else rustys over zone, rc, or other low end brands. I live right next to one of their largest dealers, I've met and spoke with rusty himself in person, and really support everything they do (with the exception of steering) |

Are their long arms any good? Yes I've had rustys parts on 2 different rigs and the parts have failed If I was ever to run anything rustys makes it would be a skid that's about it. |

I wouldn't trust them is they can't get anything that threads together right why trust control arms that use joints that thread in. Yes I've had rustys parts on 2 different rigs and the parts have failed If I was ever to run anything rustys makes it would be a skid that's about it. |

Well damn. I dont really need to run a 1 ton setup tho just something a little better than stock since I dont wheel too often. I wrecked and broke an lca bracket off the axle so i planned on getting their hd lca brackets also. Any ideas on the best brand to run? I was just gonna get a new drag link and tierod and ends for now unless I find out my trackbar is bent like I think it might be :/
http://www.ironrockoffroad.com/Merch...egory_Code=PFX Really good price on it too.. |
The iron rock tb uses stock tie rod ends...thats the weak point...the zj Tres are bigger but use the same taper
|
True, but if I snap a TRE on the trail, it's an easy fix to swap one out..where as the ZJ you're SOL
Again, this was my logic and opinion as to why I decided to run the iron rock |

If your stock and want some beefy steering its al alright option, but I'm sitting on 33x12.5 and the rod bends when trying to turn on flat ground. I plan on rusty's OTK kit or JCR's kit.

yea just 3 inch lift and 31's and i dont do any rough wheeling, just dirt and mud and ocasional big puddles. i already have the rustys adj. track bar. i just wanted another bar where i can just change the tierod ends and not the whole friggen bar again,if they go bad again. so i picked rustys matched pair.

You'll find out that their adjustable trac bars are weak. Mine broke going down the highway the other day. Barely over a year old. But the rest of the lift is alright.

I must have gotten the good batches outta rustys. :dunno:....though I never tried the steering from them, stayed stock with my lift, then I upgraded to Rugged Ridge 1 ton tie rod and drag link. I plan on doing that 1 ton upgrade on my next xj :icon_cheesygrin:
|
yea what about the rugged ridge setup? i read its a little bigger then rustys. priced from $267 to $350 or so. advanced has it for 350 or so then 15 percent off.
|
i just looked at rugged ridges conversion and it looks like it needs one special tierod end. not sure if autopart store has them in stock.
