Shibbyjeep's Trenticus Build

Sigh, ive been looking at knuckles too. Just hard to swallow another $800 on top of the other buys. But I get it. Anyone have recommendations?

If you are 4" or above possibly consider knuckles that allow top mount drag link otherwise get on @AllMoparParts.com and buy the steel factory knuckles. There are a couple other makers , Synergy which offers 2 styles regular and high steer ( for jeeps in excess of 4" and Reids Racing ( which look very strong) oh ( and those are painted a pretty orange ) which your would look great with .

You can still do no drill high steer with steersmarts. And drill high steer with a bunch of vendors. So you don’t need to make that decision now.

What knuckles are you running? Is there really any difference between Reid or Synergy? Other than $100 per side and orange paint?

I put on the mopar steel. The same ones on Mojave’s and diesels. I don’t like Reid because of the extra right hand drive drag link connection. Drives me crazy. I haven’t looked into synergy.

Mopar are more expensive than synergy also. They also have the either or drag link nub on them like the reids.

For the $100 difference, I wanted steering stop adjustments, and no extra casting. Reid doesn’t have the steering stop adjustment.

Hmm. I saw where the synergy ones do. And I like $400 each better. I can deal with the extra drag link ear on the drivers side. So I may go Synergy.

Synergy makes nice stuff. Yeah. I think I spent 900 or just under.
