Don't RK arms use poly bushings? If so, that is a dealbreaker for me. I have owned kits in the past with poly bushings on the arms and they always sqweek and creek and eventually crack and break. I think RK has some nice stuff and some neat ideas... I just don't like poly bushings.

It seems like it's a toss up. Can't go wrong with either. If I decide to go with the RK how labour intensive is the three link in the rear? How long should it take a competent welder to install?


Thanks again
Jeff

Heres a pic of the TeraFlex short arms flexing with my 4" Superlift. Not even hitting the bumpstops here. I am really impressed with the quality of the TF arms. They've taken quite a few hits on the rocks and no issues. I can't really say how the ride changes when running a lift and later switching to the TFarms as I put them on when my lift went on, but I can say that my Jeep rides great. The only thing I would change is my shocks, so yea, go with TeraFlex, you can't go wrong.
