long arms , clayton vs TNT

[ROBZ95Xj]

Iron rock has the worst set up I ever saw , the caster bracket is horrible , I installed a few o other people's and would never run that

but my friends cousins sisters boyfriends dads sisters brother in law ran the rubicon with it and won countless rti comps

I am stubbornly dumbfounded, why are iron rocks long arms so bad?

Please, don't make them rehash that 739 page argument here...just search IRO Long arms in the mod tech forum, you'll see a few threads pop up.

Search out the threads that have already debated this very topic and make up your own mind.

I do like that 3 link but for same reasons I'm not getting a rock krawler kit , there is no crossmember with it

Poly 3-link with TnT belly pan. Biggest belly pan on the market with the most coverage, and no radius arm problems. Just awesome travel and handling.

No unloading

OP: Sorry for the off-topic.
Sunburned: that are rcv joints and OME shocks?

Yes. You can go very very wrong.

Yes, but I've since replaced the front OME's with Bilstein 7100s.

With the Clayton Pro series ALL the joints are the huge Johnny Joints. The other kit's come with the smaller upper joints.

I'm fairly certain that nobody has ever broken or bent a link either and with that Clayton comes with a life time warranty against bending or breaking their links !

Seen a few bent clayton arms and a bent rear truss his stuff is great but like everyone elses it ain't indestructable

its junk. uses stock length uppers with long lowers. this causes severe pinion dive upon droop.

I was running Nth Degree adjustable uppers. Never had an issue.

My Poly kit has huge Johnny Joints for the upper and for the body side of the lowers. Axle side on the LCA's has a rubber bushing for a bit of cushion for street driving. The bushing looks brand new because it doesn't bind due to the JJ on the other side.

Plus I'd reinforce the crap out of that truss, it looks like it wants to bend just sitting there. I like not having the upper anywhere near the driveshaft also.
