Rock Krawler X Factor 3 link Long Arm
Is anyone running this kit on the road? My jeep is still a DD and I want a good stable 3 link kit and have been drooling over this one for a while.. Is it stable on the road and in of camber situations? I've read the reviews but they are almost all just trail reviews. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I am running it with 8 inches of lift on a daily driver with no sway bars. It's legit. Drives 75 mph on the highway for hours without a hiccup. I plan on going down to 6.5" tho just for the sake of not being so damn tall..

I've been running it for about 2 months and am really happy with it. DD weekend warrior.
I did hd frame stiffeners first then welded in the crush sleeves and control arm mounts. Also boxed in the axle side mounts. The arms are beef and the new joints are greaseable.

It feels a bit like a water bed but once you get used to it it's not a problem. It's not too bad. If you don't like it you can always order the fourth link and do that.

It feels very stable on the road. The crush sleeves were the hardest part. It's not easy to drill 4 big *** holes through the frame stiffeners and unbody rail. Now that it's done it was totally worth it tho

looks like you should drill the holes for those sleeves first, that would be easier than immediately install stiffeners after. Assuming you can align the holes in the stiffeners perfectly with the unibody rail.

My neighbor has it and loves it. He said he had to get a antirock antisway because it flexed so much on the trail, and up in the pnw we have trees EVERYWHERE. He also has full frame stiffeners, is sitting at about 6, with 35's. Its his daily driver and weekend trail rig.
