I don't see why there would be any issues. You just remove the transfer case cross-member, bolt the new one up, bolt the arms in. It's simple. I have their kit, and it's been great so far. Ride is amazing!

At the risk of sounding stupid and getting criticized I
just have to ask what does a long arm kit do. I know
im probably going to get at least a couple
answers if I get any but thanks in advance.

Longarms replace the lower and in most cases the upper control arms, and move the body side lower control arm mount farther aft. This allows for a far superior ride on-road and incredible front axle articulation off road.

The three link system runs great. have had mine a little over a yr. now as my DD and crawler. I make trips to California ( bout 150 miles away ) at least once a month. Handles great on the highway as well as around town. IRO makes awsome products.

agreed. their three link is amazing. im running the 6.5" LA for a DD and i love it. more flex then i need with a really good ride quality. i had the rc 4.5" kit before and it rode like ****. every bump made my head hit the roof. they produce solid products but i was also running short arm with no drop brackets.
