So here's the deal. I wanted to get an IRO 5.5" long arm kit, but I am still open to other lifts as well. I was dubbing on craigslist and came across a used kit for sale.
It has Rubicon express leaf springs (full pack), RE front coils, Rough country fixed control arms, and a rusty's track bar. The guy is asking 500 firm.
I don't really have the coin to drop on the IRO lift but I figured if I saved up this winter I could probably have it for sprig time. Then I came across this lift on craigslist, and being wayyy more in my price range I am considering getting it. But I have heard some bad things about the RE leaf springs, and at $500 for this used kit, I was wondering if you guys think its worth spending an extra 200 bucks or so and just getting a brand new rusty's kit, or to stick with my original plan and bite the bullet on the IRO. I do know the rustys kit is not the quality that the IRO lift is, but it is also almost a grand cheaper.
I will note that this is my first build ever, and I figured it wouldn't hurt to get some opinions from you guys that have experience with this.
Thanks!
