my experience is a bit dated on this topic but...

I switched from RE to Tera on my TJ a few years back...

night and day upgrade going to Tera...

with that said, perhaps Rubi Exp has increased their quality and design since then...

Those trackbars are fairly light weight and can flex when you compare them to a TeraFlex HD Forged Trackbar #1753418 (about 22lbs).

Could the track bar make that much difference. Also is there a solid drop bracket for the front trackbar to get it back to being more horizontal.

Ran the 4.5 RE Superflex on my ZJ and loved it. Had it for eight years with no problems and rode great. Cant say for the JK since I have OME, Teraflex, and JKS lift on it.

I went ahead and got a teraflex hd forged trackbar, finally have it installed and things are much better. Still a little more flighty than the teraflex lift, but driveable. Thanks for the help.
