Unbiased Opinion on Adj Trackbar needed
 
I've narrowed it down to Rough Country forged adjustable track bar VS. Rock Krawler Bomb proof adj trackbar.
Which one is better? Both are equal in price give or tal=ke a dixie

I have never seen the rancho but I have the RK and I like it.

I have a RK and hate the jam nuts. I would spend a few dollars more and get the Tera Flex. Love my RK triple rate springs not so nuts about the track bar.

I agree. I find the RK jam nuts a major PITA. The Synergy stuff is nice because it can be adjusted on the Jeep. I currently have the TF and it's been solid for a couple years. The hardware for the clamp is shitty and needs to be replaced with grade 8 so you can actually get it right enough.

OP- Sorry I went a bit off topic. Between the two you mention I'd pass on the RC. The last RK TB I installed for a friend had two failures with the spherical joint causing death wobble within the first six months.

I think with the whole context of the post I believe he is recommending teraflex or synergy. I'll add in metalcloak

Trying to stay within a certain budget

I've ran both RC and RK. No comparison between the two. rough country was rusty in less than a month but adjusted easily, RK is very beefy and high quality. Very hard to adjust though.

I got mine adjusted in about 10 minutes when I first put it on about a year ago, and haven't touched it since except when I had a loose jam nut tightened that up about a month after I put it on and haven't touched it since then
