The way their website is set up I cant provide links to anyhting but the main page. The one I was referring to was the triple threat, not the X factor, my mistake. But this one is definately a triangulated 4 link.

I really like my Iron Rock Long Arm setup. As far as I'm concerned its the best quality for the price out there. Its really nice to have the ability to drop the rear cross member and not have to drop my arms. I ended up selling my existing 4" short arm kit to get back some extra scratch. Its a 3 link front with the track bar...soo not really sure what the heck it is...LOL

True, but it's the internet and we all know what the OP really wants.
Ya know I'm kidding....
The OP should buy what he feels is the best option based on his driving style, terrain driven, and budget.

if your asking about the rig in the last pic in post#4, yes that's mine. Those are one-off SliderZ that replace the factory rockers. The body has to be cut up and the replacement rockers/sliders are then welded in. Not a project that most people are set up to tackle, so the short answers is no I don't sell those.

Well I've heard some bad things about Y-links, like they wont allow as much droop as a well set up triangulated 4 link or a 3 link, they are weaker due to less mounting points onto the frame and unload like crazy on hills. Are most of these issues true or are they way overblown? That's the man reason im kinda scared off from the whole Radius Arm setup.

More drop than you can shake dead cat at.
Yes LA's can unload, not a problem if you're ready for it. A simple center mounted limiting strap can be used if it's a real major concern.
