If you know popular opinions than you should've known Iron Rocks Double shear if the "go to" option.

RCs double shear isn't bad, my dad has one. The bracket is odd, it has a part that sticks out toward the coil and pushes the coil out a bit. Also, like said, it does lower the mount a lot. But he had a drop pitman on anyways.

It ain't got **** on my IRO tho!!!

Not from you, the dude that said he was getting the pos track bar lol.

I have had no issues with the RC equipment I have. I wheel harder than some, lighter than others and it has served me well. There was a good bit of complaining a while back about the bushings and flex joints that came with RC lifts and since then they have changed manufacturers. Their only real shortcoming (pun intended) is that the rear leaf packs are too short. Most of the RC bashing is done by people who don't have it. Not that I'm saying that everyone who does is perfectly satisfied.

It's more then principal for me, a company that knowingly sells products that are defective is not one that I'm going to support. They know that every short leaf spring they sell is gonna sell them a pair of relocation brackets.

Interesting. I almost grabbed one off ebay that was from RC but had read several threads giving bad reviews. Glad your happy with your purchase. What did you do with your sway bar links: Ditched them, dropped them, or extended them? Least to say it is next on the list.
