Have you purchased stuff from them before?

There customer service was great, as well as they do not sell garbage products.

I am in the middle of installing their front recovery system which is super beefy, and when I called with questions they gladly took the time to help me with everything

I'm sorry if I offended you but the folks I wheel with push RC , I was reamed for buying my zone lift . I read a whole bunch of threads about RC stuff being garbage . I was not bashing IRO specifically . I was pointing out above if a co products are good they don't need a rep . Word of mouth works wonders .

Luckily I did not buy anything big from them, I pieced together my kit together with mostly RE parts.

The last pieces I need are control arms, which I was leaning toward IRO's interesting long arm kit. I know I am going long arm, I am still trying to decide what kit as it is going to be my daily and weekend wheeler... Sorry everyone for going off topic... back to long arm discussion etc...

I dont see why you couldnt modify top of arm/axle mount to accept a larger bolt. If iro would get on here and see all this feed back tney might change arm and add modifying stock mount to there kit . This would shut up all the nay Sayers, right?

The subject of their arms being a fixed length hasn't even been touched yet. There are other features not there left to be desired. Good luck centering your axle in the wheel well to your liking or adding 1-2" of stretch like a lot of guys do. T case skid. Removable 3 piece crossmember.
