Default which trackbars are better???

So i am goin to order the front and rear adjustable trackbars for my rubi

after the 2.5 inch BB the axles are a bit off center, and eventhough it is not affecting the ride or performance, my pickiness is forcing me to get the axles straightened out


here are my choices in order of likelyhood of purchase

1. Black Diamond
2. Full traction
3. Teraflex

the black diamond ones are the cheapest( by far) the teraflex has 2 heims(which is bad in my book, id like to stay away from heims period)


can anyone possible make a reccomendation which would lead me toward a purchase

P.s. please no comments, on the fact that i dont need it or that its unnecesary, thanks

If you are really worried about the heim joints you could do something really trick and get any of the above mentioned trackbars and contact Rubicon Express for the appropriate joint. They make an adjustable heavy duty track bar for the TJ that uses a flex joint rubiconexpress.com/Products.aspx?Cn=324&Pn=1786&XnPath=320,323,324&Vi d=25B71B931082. I am sure you could probably just pick up the end piece off of them and as long as the opening matches the stud (or whatever the threaded end of the joint is) you could just screw it right in .

Food for thought....

I agree with dennisuello. My vote is for the teraflex one. After looking at it a little more it has 2 rebuildable johnny joint style ends. Pretty snazzy.

yup traded the maxima in on the JK in november

i didnt notice that the tera ones have rebuildable joints, ill take a look at that
