Part numbers are not allowed.



Why do you need his part number? How long are yours? Measure your Jeep for your shocks.

We installed the 5.5 long arm IRO kit on a friend of mines Jeep and he loves it. He has the doestec shocks and it works really well offroad. Its a little bumpy on the street, so when I ordered my long arm upgrade from them I went with the bilistien 5100s. It works very well and I am extremly happy with it. Regardless off all the haters for IRO on this site. Dont bother spending the extra money on the adjustable lowers. You dont need them.

If you must know my shocks are currently at 27.5in long, The shocks Im looking to get are the DT3421 at 32.0/18.5. I was simply just interested in if this is the same part IRO provides with their 5.5in setup or if they provide one of the shorter P/N's. Is there a rule against this?

When I finally save up the money, I'm going to be buying this kit. And I'm gunna beat the **** out of it. And then I'll report back with how it holds up. Cause I have not heard from a single person who dislikes an IRO long arm kit. It's always "I know someone ELSE who broke something or another". So I will take my chances with it

And I'm surprised ktm has not joined in on this thread yet haha

Josh says this is your number... "8386-8371" But that's not their part number. Dudes being difficult. I will strangle dude.

Edit! Dude says they're "They are 17 collapsed to 29.5 extended."

Nice, I take that they would probably be the DT3386. Thats only one size down from the one I've been looking to get.

Thanks again for looking into that for me
