Default adj front lower LCA's, Rock Krawler or Tera Flex?

I'm currently running fixed length control arms with poly bushings. They're very stressed when flexing at the axle mount since they don't utilize a flexible joint like a johnny jnt etc. I'm leaning toward the RK's for the affordability and the high clearance is a sweet feature. What would you run, TF or RK? pics of your Rk high clearance lca's? thanks

I like my teraflex lower arms, they have taken a beating and adjust well. Can't go wrong with RK either, I'd get whichever is cheaper! Good luck

Look at the EVOs or the Currie arms as well. They are a bit more money, but they are far better quality.

I have both, and no complaints with either jeep. X2 on whichever is less money.

I like the adjustability of the Evo's without having to remove them, but to me that doesn't justify the very large increase in cost. I'm going RK for the replacement warranty, and high clearance. Anything with a flex joint will be much better performance than my poly bushing WP arms. Thanks for yall opinions

Okay then include them!

The joint is far better! And the ability to adjust without having to remove the arm does please those of us who have them...

You dont have to agree, it doesnt hurt my feelings. I do see that my opion hurt yours though.

Have a good day!

Can we bring this thread back to life? I have the same question as the op. should I get teraflex or rock krawler control arms? Specifically those two companies. And why is one better then the other? Looks like RK is gonna save me 200 bucks and has a good reputation

I have the RK's, the price was great and I needed them. I can't speak for the TF's, except for their reputation which is great. For my purposes and budget, the RK's were and are perfect!
