Synergy Trackbar/Sector Shaft Brace with RK Trackbar.
I have an '11 JKU Rubi with a 2.5" RK Max Travel lift in it. After seeing the result of a roll over caused by a broken sector shaft, I want to reinforce mine. Does anyone know if the Synergy Trackbar and Sector Shaft Brace kit will work with the RK trackbar? If anyone has this setup, was the install fairly straight forward? Thanks in advance.

I have the rock krawler track bar as well and I have read that it does not, but I haven't seen it. I'm looking into this sector shaft brace.

I can tell you that it definitely does not fit. I have the 3.5" X-Factor lift and the Synergy sector shaft brace. I had to replace the front track bar with the Synergy one as a result. The RK track bar will contact the bearing support on even mild bumps. The Synergy track bar is bent to accommodate this. The bonus though is that you'll get a track bar that's adjustable without having to pull the bolt at the axle!

I understand the brace will also contact the RK coil springs that are larger diameter than stock on some (all?) installs.
I ended up using the RSP brace but you may want to make a call to Mike first to see if they've made any mods to it since he received mine that I modded for powder coat and grease fitting relo to fit the RK bar.
