So if I read it right I would not have been able to get it anyway for the $164, therefore it's no biggie the sale is over.

I'm not sure I follow you on this. The lift height is what it is, there is no adjusting the height until I upgrade my lift again. The pic is tiny of the JKS front JK trackbar on northridge's site, so I can't blow it up, but it appears to be adjustable while attached at both points whereby one would adjust accordingly centering the axle to frame , unless I'm missing something. It actually looks near identical to what I've used on the racecar that was fully adjustable while installed on the Camaro, but they called them Panhard rods Vs. Trackbars...same thing.

I'm going to call David @North this morning and get the skinny on TF and JKS fronts, one of them will be ordered soon as they open.

JKS front and rear for me, both are quite sturdy and well worth the money IMO......

The terra flex trackbar is designed like adjusting your draglink to straighten you steering wheel you can do it attached to the JK. The JKS trackbar is real easy to adjust.
But you have to take it out to adjust it or just the one end. TeraFlex TB's can be adjust while bolted on the JK at both ends.

Bottom line is the sale you guys ran unfortunately didn't include your HD, sales over anyway, but would have been nice, I'd consider it for $165. Leaving one end out to adjust isn't that big of a deal to me, but I sure liked the TF HD version.

Default TF HD Trackbar

I have a 3" TF lift and put the TF HD front trackbar on last April or May when they first came out. Have put 20,00km on since with no problems. Easy to adjust and if you get any spring sag or change bumpers or add a winch you don't need to remove it to make adjustments. I always wonder when TF says
4" lift what they mean as thier 3" will net you over 4" in the front.
