JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

What was done to your JK this week?

Why is it a POS? I was considering buying one to match my Fox shocks that came with my lift. Personally, I think they look good, it's there a performance issue with that one you have that others are better for?

well its not bad... But it limits my steering to left like you wouldn't believe and if you loosen up the tie rod clamp and move it over than it really limits your ability to turn right and i have toyed and toyed with it trying to get it center and it will not $&@$ing center. Moral of the story its a bad design. not worth it for the $350+ price range. Save your money and get a simple inexpensive stabilizers that will out pro-form the over rated Fox ATS stabilizer any day.

I saw another guy do something similar with a heat gun and epoxy, but it looked pretty rough.
I followed a write up on this forum.

I used a heat gun but no epoxy. I also used a soldering gun to plastic weld the joints.

You're right the nuts got cut off so I had to drill new holes and attached it to the metal frame with extra bolts and nuts. (Jeep still has plenty nuts left though)

Synergy trackbar
Synergy draglink flip
Synergy 1.75" wheel spacers

The good news is it's driving a lot better, that bad news is the bad front clunk I thought was coming from a bad trackbar bushing...didn't go away, I fear it's something much more serious now, can't figure out what's going on
