I have a 3" and all, but TeraFlex, would fit my application. TeraFlex doesn't make these for a 3", do they?

Wrong. The new #1753418 Forged TB will work on stock or higher lifted JK's.

If anyone can get a chance to check out a Teraflex suspension in person, the components are built like a tank! Everything is heavy gauge metal and the components themselves have a great fit & finish. Scottg07 has wheeled the heck out of his JK with the 6" long arm kit and it was his stock components that broke, not his Teraflex parts.

There's also something to be said that we actually have the manufacturer represented on this forum rather than a dealer (no offense to anyone). This means that you get top level customer service since the opinions and proof (wheeling stories & pics) are posted on this forum for everyone to see and for them (manufacturer) to answer to.

Just my 2 cents.

Take a look at the Teraflex Track Bar...see the adjustment in the MIDDLE of the bar vs the END LINK.

With the Teraflex, you mount the bar, then simply rotate to adjust the bar perfectly. With the others, you need to drop them, rotate, remount and repeat the process again...and again...and again.

The Teraflex design is by far the best I have seen and it's what I plan to buy when I get the money.

I have seen a JKS track bar break in half...I have NEVER heard of a TERAFLEX front track bar breaking....there is a reason JKS's is so low in price...You do the math!

Be SURE your safe with the Teraflex trackbar... You don't want to want to be in a drivers seat driving at speed when a front trackbar breaks!
