Default superlift track bars

Is anyone running the Superlift track bars either front or rear, They seam to be a good deal @137.99 each but I don't want any problems down the road. I read a thread the other day about Tera Flex track bars having a thin bushing @ the adjustable end that actually caused the bushing to wear through the axle bracket, Thats the kind of problems I don't want. If their crap I'll just put out the extra $40 each for the Full Traction heavy duty bars. Thanks in advance for any info.

I have heard good reviews for Black Diamond and if you goto their web site you will see both Super Lift and Black Diamond. I think they are the same company now but not certain.

I'm running the Superlift track bar on the front, it works great.... No problems here, looks like a pretty solid design.

I have the Superlift up front also. No problems it’s well made.

Note: It's 1/2" longer than stock at shortest length. This means that if you use it with a 2” BB it will more than likely shift your axle to the passenger’s side. With my lift my front axle now sits off center 1/4“ to the passenger’s side along with rear axle.

Yep, it works great. It's beefy on the frame end with the standard bushing and a heim joint on the other. No problems for me. I'm sure the mount will rip off my axle before it breaks. Oh, BD used to be owned by Warn and now Superlift owns it. (I don't know the specific stuff)

Wow a 1/2 " longer than stock, my front is only off center 1/8" and the rear is only 3/8 ", I think i've decided to go with full traction bars because I think I read that they are the same length as the stock bars when fully adjusted in. Can anyone confirm this, thanks for all the good info.

The FT bars are stock length at the shortest adjustment.

Anyone running a 4"lift with the Superlift Adj rear bar? I need to know if you are running the supplied bracket or if the bar is long enough on it's own? I got this to eliminate the relocation bracket, not swap to another one.
