which set up.
Alright I need good input. My suspension is shot leafs are flat one of the front shocks rusted a hole and leaked out. Looking at three different lifts. I been searching for a few months now gathering info.
First rustys off road advance kit. 3 coils and full leafs, hydro shocks, fixed upper and lower control arms, adjustable tra bar, break line.
heard there leafs sag and the trac bar isnt that great.
750+shipping
Rough counrty. 3inch coils and full leafs, fixed lower control arms, sway bar bracket, n2.0 shocks. Heard the shocks are not the greatest.
609+shipping
Would also need adjustable trac bar most likely iro.
Lastly iron rock offroad. 3inch coils and full leafs, transfer case drop, extended front sway bar links, rear break bracket, hd adjustable trac bar. Roughly 774.96 +shipping
Few questions
With a 3 inch kit you dont have to get different lca and uca right?. I believe its just something to watch because they will fail soon.
Im leaning toward the iron rock off road kit but I cant find much on reviews for a xj mostly zj. I heard great things mostly about there trac bar. How is there lift

Out of the 3 kits you are looking at, I would go with the IRO his parts are beefy as hell other then that Longarm which is kinda sketchy IMO.
Upper and Lower arms are not needed but recommended, I run Adjustable Uppers and Lowers on my 3.5" lift
I have had 2 Bad experiences with rustys parts on previous Jeeps (Snapped a Main leaf after a Week of being on a Jeep, and Had a tierod end slide in and out of the tierod that was a month old ), And their customer service when it comes to warrantying parts well your better off buying someone elses stuff.
RC Their quality has came up in the last few years, But Their Joints stuck 2 of my buddys have recently installed RC lifts and the Joints in their arms have worn out within 2 months

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think IRO uses RC shocks, coils, and leaf packs. I'm not saying that is a bad thing, just throwing it out there.

Oh I thought that iro was there own brand. I looked at zone basic kit 510 for shocks coil and leafs would still need trac bar way bar bracket or extened links. rear break line extened. Would love a rubicon express but cant find one for a decent price with mono tube shocks
