Leveled.....now want adj track bar and lca's

[billyjk7]

2.5 leveled in the front with a 3/4 rear. It sits just how i want it with 35s.....i have the falcon 2.2 pass thru stabilizer. Want to get it aligned soon.....but want the suspension to be able to be right on. I want the caster set to 6-7. Dont want to do it untill i get an adj trackbar and lca s. I wont be wheeling this one hard. Suggestions for the lcas and trackbar? Im leaning toward yeti for the trackbar

JKS or Teraflex Alpine are quality components.

I am really wanting Teraflex Alpine IR arms and track bar because of the ability of the bushing sleeve to rotate. I just can’t afford to do it right now. If you aren’t wheeling it hard, you could go with an adjustable set with OEM-style rubber bushings. JKS makes some good stuff with rubber bushings, at a slightly lower pricepoint than Teraflex or Metalcloak.

How do you want to use your JT? For strength and joint misalignment, RK is pretty tough to beat.

Its just a daily driver with moderate off road use. I dont want to buy a lesser brand like skycrapper and end up replacing in a year or so......but also want a good deal. Hoping for some good black friday deals

Did you look at Clayton? https://www.claytonoffroad.com/jeep_wrangler_overland_front_lower_control_arms_2018_jl

Those are a nice compromise for what you are doing.

Just installed the 2.5” front 1” rear (skycrapper) leveling kit and 37’s. Also interested in the front track bar LCA swap. But was looking either Evo or synergy for the adjustability on the vehicle. They claim jam nuts come loose on evo style. Interested to hear everyones opinion.

If you drive your Jeep jam nuts will come loose.....Period. You should routinely get under your Jeep and torque everything down. I usually do it every 5k when I rotate tires.
Quality of the product is what would matter to me most. I have always gone with Rock Krawler. Never had a wobble or a worry.

I was suggested rock krawler from the tech at 4wp here in PA since they are from NY and salt is a concern. Im an industrial mechanic and wannabe fabricator so the wall thickness welding and joints were my main interest. We have these threaded shaft collars that would be awesome to prevent that issues. Yes I agree a regular preventative maintenance schedule should be done on any rig just to be sure.

Yeah surface rust doesn’t concern you all that much when you realize it has another inch and a quarter of solid steel to go through.

what part of PA are you from. My wife has family all over up there, based in penargyl

I live in Harrisburg the weather here isnt as bad as northern PA. Im pretty sure its all tubing not solid. I believe synergy is 1/4” wall I didnt really see EVO advertise wall thickness. The concerns that come to mind for me are adjusting the length without removing it from the vehicle in the case of synergy and what points are we measuring from while correcting the pinion angle. The thickness of the coating is another. I do the work myself so the support from the manufacturer is pretty important to me. I just got my jeep back saturday so I havent began to fully obsess over it all yet

I can tell you RK’s are fully adjustable, solid steel (so you don’t have to worry about wall thickness), rebuildable joints and you can call them directly if you have any issues. They have always been Willi b to help any time I’ve called.

Well damn solid steel thats pretty damn sweet! Glad to hear about the great experience. Quality customer service is a tougher thing to come by these days.

Solid depends on location, some arms are solid, some are 5/16 wall DOM and some are 7/16 wall DOM. 5/16" wall is the smallest walled control arms that we have in any application.
