Default Best steering correction kit

Hey guys,

I'm looking at getting a steering correction kit for my JK that has a 5" trailmaster lift installed. I've seen the EVO drag-link flip kit and the AEV high steer correction kit. What do you think is the best steering correction kit available?

both are pretty much exactly the same and both will do the job well. i believe the EVO setup is a bit cheaper if that makes a difference.

The Evo is a nice kit with a great price.

The Teraflex is a good unit

Or, the high dollar route is below. Not a kit but it raises the drag-link by 3 inches (you can get rid of the RR drop pitnum arm) The draglink casting on the knuckle is 1.5" higher plus you flip it for 1.5" more and tie rod is 1.5" higher but no flip.


REID-JK001L Reid JK Steering Knuckle Left Side (JK001L) $259.99
REID-JK001R Reid JK Steering Knuckle Right Side (JK001R) $259.99
CE-JK-9701 Currie JK Currectlync Heavy Duty Tie Rod & Drag Link System (JK-9701) 799.99


Edit: I like calvin and hobbes too

I'm running the TeraFlex and love it...the one I have has the added HD Frame brace which probably is why it feels more solid now!

The kit is a better drag link and an additional frame brace, there is no track bar in the kit

the track bar brace allows u to run the track bar in stock location, or raised for i high steer setup.
