In that case I think you should give the Metalcloak a serious look.
Having fought that Steersmarts brace for a whole day, and reading the instructions on the Metalcloak, I'd be inclined to go with that.
It looks way easier to install and it costs much less.

It is interesting they seem to be the only ones not combining the track bar reinforcement bracket and the sector shaft brace

It is not.
I never could get the bolt holes to line up on mine and eventually abandoned the project.
My steering is fantastic now without a brace, because I found out that my caster and geometry was affected by the 2" lift and I properly adjusted the free play out of the steering gearbox.

The Metalcloak brace is what I would recommend for any JT, but especially the Mojave, if you're set on having one.
Keep in mind, lunentucker probably has an aluminum steering box which has since been updated with newer gladiators.

Hmm, I get pretty bad wobble from time-to-time and looking to go with the AEV 2" Mojave spacer + 37's. If I can head this off, I'd like to do that.

Just spoke with Synergy and they are working on a Mojave-specific brace now. Will update here if they reply back with a release date.
It officially released. Not Mojave specific, it now is updated to fit all models, including Mojave, 392, and diesels models. With no grinding or cutting required. And an option for greasable ($300) or sealed bearing ($325).

I like that no more cutting is required, but I don’t like the price. I already have the metalcloack sector shaft brace.($150)
And the metalcloak track bar bracket is only ($109). So I’ll probably go with that.
