One is iro 5.5 long arm and one is rc 4.5 long arm.

please give as much info as you can and know thanks so much! dont forget to vote!

search. this has been covered about 4 times in the past month

I am looking also but will not buy neither of these. And if I really had to pick I will go with the RC. The IRO kit looks like a disaster waiting to happen. Not only are those radius arms (which only connect to the frame with to bolts), but they removed one of the short arms on the passenger side. So now what you have is a RC kit with one of the arms taken out. That does not sound geed to me. RC has a better cross member with the skidplate buy the lower arm mounts hang to low off of the crossmember rubbing clearence. I was going to get this kit but after research will go with TNT. I am only doing the long arm upgrade tough as I have the rear sorted out already. Oh yeah , If you buy RC you will have to buy the relocators for the leafs. Their leafs are to short and actually pull your shackle forward. In my opinion get the long arm upgrade only from TNT, and the rear leafs from whoever you want and install shackle relocators from RC.

The RC kit you have picked comes with adda leaf and 1.5 in shackles. You will be lucky to get 3 inches out of that after it settles.Thats why its so cheap. If you decide to buy from them you need the one with full leafs.

I had the RC 4.5" kit. It rode ok, kind of rough though. Worked fine.

From what I hear, IRO is a lot better. I would go with the IRO kit.

Go RC with full leaf packs

this ^. geting old with the new threads that are asking the same stupid questions over and over again.

theres a SEARCH button. use it.................

You pay for quality. The IRO is more expensive because it is a better kit. RC is a good cheap buy but if you have the money buy the IRO it is that much better.

I like iro because it comes with full leaf packs and everything

I am mainly thinking of which one is going to last longer and flex better?

they both say long arm and they both look different.

does anyone know which kit will flex better?

IRO. Because its missing a link.

any longarm will flex more than you need it to. and neither of those kits are amoung the most durable. if you actually searched you would have learned this already.

I agree that you have so many other viable/quality options out there, why are you looking at the bottom feeders of kits?

Search and you will find out all the info you need on these 2 brands. Why do people know a days not want to work for knowledge. Everyone, especially here, wants everything handed to them........

Next step on my list is a long arm upgrade. TNT is the one I will go with if I decide to go for Radius setup. Other option is Rock Krawler 3link. I did my research on all kits. And there is more info available then you need.

The reason i am asking about these 2 kits are because i do not have alot of money and $1000-$1500 is already pushing it....I went with the rc 3 inch lift in the begining and i have not had problems but i just want more flex.....


I plan on locking the front, bumper, winch, lights, and bigger lift in this next month or two...
