I was also looking at this RC setup for my rig. Thanks to everyone's input ill reconsider this route.
On this note, whats the advantage and/or disadvantage of a 3 link vs. the 4 link setups. And does it make a difference on the 3 link if the upper control arm is on driver side (top of the diff) or passenger side?
And i see ppl are saying good things about IRO kits, but what about these guys? anyone tried them? http://froehlichsuspension.com/4-link.htm
Thanks for the info and sorry if i hijacked the thread.

I haven had any experiance with RC but i havent heard alot of good thing about it from the forum either. Lots of problems with bushing.
I bought and installed the IRO 6.5 critical long arm kit over a yr ago. The driver side upper controll arm was my only real consern when i was looking at the lift. I spoke with IRO mutiple times. hey always had time no matter what. even after Hrs. their customer service was amazing. They told me if i break it they will replace it. The single control arm on the passanger side has been no problem what so ever. LOVE THE LIFT!!!!!!!!!!!


I know alot of people see me on here alot abot IRO. But look at my biuld. Look at other biulds. Call IRO. Ask questions.

Sorry, but that looks weaker than the RC set up. I'm not a fan, and the links look thin. The RC joints are not as wimpy either, those are pretty good sized joints on the RC kit, at least the one's that are pictured...
We have several guys here that make LA set ups, why not check out their stuff too....just food for thought. FrankZ makes a nice LA set up, and I have seen it beat on....HARSHLY, and it comes back for more...

I know this is an older thread but I would just like to let all you guys out there know that we have now upgraded to 1-3/4 solid lowers with 1-1/4 Ruffstuff chromoly heims by popular demand.
Of course the kit went up 150 dollars but I believe you will find its well worth it. If you have any questions let me know. www.froehlichsuspension.com

I wish I would've offered the heavier kits back when you ordered. I never heard back from you. Was wondering if you got everything worked out... What all did you have to customize? I know you were doing some different stuff, pics?
1. thats a radius kit not a 3 link, if you wanna go that route spend the extra money and get the TNT kit, its worth it
too bad he uses weak links and only 7/8 heims in his setup, i have his crossmember cause i figured save some time and buy it but i had to modify it a ton so i should have just built my own. but i run my own 3 link with 1.25 heims in 2" x .281 wall dom. much stronger than any "kit"
