Default Adj. Front Track Bar?

I'm looking for some opinions on getting a new adjustable front track bar. I've been looking at the Teraflex HD but can't justify spending that much for it. Being able to adjust it while on the Jeep is nice, but I feel it's not something that would need to be done often. I've also been looking at the JKS as its almost $90 cheaper and is still stronger than stock. What are your guys opinions on the JKS or what other brand should I consider?

I have the jks and have compared it side by side with the tflex they seem equal to me other than the on the jeep adjustability
However it's not that hard to adjust it first then put the other bolt in
Jks is my vote especially for the price

I cheaped out and bought a rock krawler and wish I could go back in time and buy the teraflex track bar. it would so much nicer adjusting it. The RK joint jam nuts are a pain in the ass getting torqued down and keeping straight in the brackets.

I have the TF one and its held up well no complaints from me it's been in my jeep for almost four yearsish.

I am switching to the synergy one now because their sector shaft brace is only compatible with their TB and I believe ready lifts as well.

Thank you! I wanted some input from those with the JKS. I have no problem undoing a bolt to adjust if the need be. For the price I think I'll go with this one.

JKS is a quality company and stuff is made in the U.S. They had some issues with the early track bars up front but have had several revisions and the last one I had was way more beef over a stocker.

Glad to hear they got the problems sorted out! I've heard of them before but had no idea about the reputation of the company or products.

You won't be disappointed with either, but the Teraflex bars are excellent.
