Default JKS adjustable trackbars

I just installed front and rear Jks trackbars today. And I just wanted to let eveyone know that these are beefy as hell! The front one is crazy looking! I was going to buy the Rk front and a bracket for the rear but after talkin to the guys at Northridge I decided on the JKS. I'm happy I did. And as usual the Northridge guys treated me right and shipping was über fast. Now I don't have to stare at my uncentered axles anymore. I'm stoked!

Ok. That's all.

I've heard that was a problem in the past. I've also heard that it's all good now.

That style has been replaced under warranty. It's all good with the new design.

They made it seem like th JKS was a better product. The JKS was also in stock, and they said the RK was a couple weeks out. They know more than I do, as this is my 1st JK. After seeing the front, I cant imagine anything being more beefy.

Is there a problem with the JKS and loosness? Seems to be a lot of people saying check the torque.
