I have always used Currie Currectlync on my Jeeps when I could. On the JT only the drag link ends need to be angled so the joints are actually at the proper working angle by design in relation to where it enters the spindle instead of on an angle like the OE end is once lifted. It was more important on a TJ being it has many ends that needed to be designed to be squared up at their connections when lifted . This puts the force on the correct part of the joint

After bouncing my 2" RPM Aluminum Tie Rod off of Rocks at the Rubicon Trail on 2 separate trips, 2 years apart, I am impressed with the fact that they will not bend, and the toe-in is always perfect. We had a guy on our Rubicon Trail trip that put a "V" in his steel tie rod and drag link that caused him all kinds of steering problems. Mine have also been banged around pretty good at the Big Bear Badge of honor trails with no issues. Amazing how they bounce back to straight.

Running Artec aluminum tie rod and drag link, which use steer smarts rod ends, and a steering stabilizer relocation bolt and clamp from Synergy. Track bar is from Rock Krawler. Happy with that setup, the stock stabilizer is fine. The only things I might add would be hydro assist or the apex line booster thingy, and a sector shaft brace.
