All I need to get my lift installed is a new trackbar, I'm leaning towards the iro one between cost and seeing how beefy it is on a few friends rigs, but someone threw out the idea of the Clayton one, so my question is this: how much of a difference would the johnny joint make? I'm running re superflex 3.5 at planning on going a bit taller and a Clayton three link so would that change your decision? The cost is my main concern as its not $5 or ten more its $90 more, $90 is almost two tanks of gas so...

Gee oh Dee

I dont think it'd matter much. Those joints really don't flex, they travel on an arc if that makes any sense.

IRO uses a control arm bushing if I remember right. So very easy and cheap to replace.

The biggest difference is the IRO is solid stock I believe, and the Clayton is tubing. Tubing is stronger than solid stock.

i figured it wouldnt lol, i didnt know that about tha busing for the iro one, yes the iro one is solid, maybe when i upgrade the axle and do the three link ill get a ruff stuff kit and setup a tube one then lol

Thanks for the help in my decision!! i just ordered the iro one

I have the Clayton HD bar and I love it, I got it though for only $80 and being on a budget I defiantly wouldn't get it if I had to buy brand new. I don't have any friends with the IRO bar but the johnny joint is nice I think on the wear and tear over years of wheeling compared to bushings

Almost two tanks of gas for 90 bucks! I get one tank for 90 bucks

ALMOST last tank was like $55 like 3.40 by me ATM....last December was under 3.00, course I had a civic then :/
