Idiots who dont fully understand things are scared of them. I love my lift. But listen to the guys who have never ran the system. I dont ****ing care anymore.

Thats interesting. The "camber adjuster" actually the castor adjustor is NOT welded to the arm. Or the bracket. Wow

Branden has already said why IRO is crap.. No need to discuss it any longer.
Yall say dumb **** and incorrect information I will gladly correct y'all.

The ONLY thing anybody can talk down about is the one bolt for the upper arm attatched to the axle. Thats it. Do me a favor. Research the size of the hardware on most kits, and how the upper sus links are attatched. Same size bolt. Just two of em.

Lol I think he meant that the upper arm is welded to the lower arm. But he's always on his phone so he types like a ****ing reject.

That's the only thing i dont like about it. If that one bolt was upgraded, i wouldnt have a problem with it. Just not my cup of sweet tea.

Still dumb and incorrect. Still needed to be fixed.

"Just not my cup a sweet tea" see how this sounds a lot like "Imho I dont like it". Which is perfectly fine. But the "my dads second cousin's brother had that lift and that bracket thingie and single bolt is junk" is what all you heresay haters sound like. No evidence, just I heard or people's opinions.

Run it. If you dont like it post up some fact. Otherwise if you have zero experience with the kit stfu

I said the upper arm is welded to the upper not the castor adjuster. And pardon me for getting those two similar words confused. I didn't say it was ****, I just told him why people don like it which is what he asked.

I RE read my post I put upper arm twice instead of upper welded to lower, and I didn't separate the castor adjuster point from the upper/lower point. I see the confusion, but I was only explaining why people don't like it. Not saying it was junk.

And a for the UCA bolts, even if all the other radius arm designs use stock sizes bolts, they have one on each side, not just one side.
