Replace the first option with an FST 3 link and you are good to go. 
All though If you are set on either the Iro or the TNT then I would go TNT.

It uses a single 7/16" bolt and a flimsy almost sheet metal caster adjuster bracket to hold the axle in place. Not only is that set up weak but the caster adjuster is a pain to deal with. I would have to ask what is it that is attracting you to this kit when there are much better kits out there? Better radius arm options have already been mentioned like TNT and Serious. And the even better performing true 3 links have also been mentioned, Clayton and FST.
