Going to be getting a long arm up grade for the rig. I've been looking at a few and right now it's down to Rustys, serious, or Clayton. I just want opinions on which kit to go with. Is one better than another? Is there a better one out there? I want the kit to be able to flex well for rock crawling and be able to handle some fast desert driving too

 

Also want it to have good street manners. Just want the best I can get so I'm happy with it this time. Thanks.

 

hands down clayton.

 

lots of desert in missouri? serious and clayton are the same design (unless you get the 3 link), you cant go wrong with either.

 

i upgraded to clayton..... super easy to install everything is over kill...witch is great!!

 

I wish there was desert in Missouri. It would save me the drive. I go to the dunes in Oklahoma about 3 times a year.

 

Ever any problems with any bushings going out?

 

Bushings are going to go out no matter what. Keep them greased and they will last a while. But that's something that has to be replace periodically.

 

I understand that I just don't want to change them as often as I do these junk RC ones. Anything wrong with the Rustys kit?

 

Getting a setup with a 3 piece crossmember is the way to go imo. I'm using an iron rock crossmember with rustys arms and I like the combo so far.

 

+1 to clayton

BUT you need to weld new cross member with frame. other vice you may lose your suspension and transmission

i made my long arms by myself based on clayton drawings. Use it till 2 years with no problem.

 

RUBICON.

 

Rockkralwer makes a nice 3 and 4 link kit

 

IRO any good?? Looking to do a long arm upgrade myself.

 

some people like iro, some dont. there are definitely better options out there that are better than iro. like clayton, rockkrawler, serious offroad
