Default Fox ATS Steering Stabilizer Fitment Question

I have a 2012 JK Rubi 2door auto.

I have the EVO drag link flip kit, with the synergy HD tie rod.

Does the Fox ATS Steering Stabilizer come with a shorter mounting bolt on the axle mounted side, and on the tie rod end, will the clamp work on the Synergy HD tie rod? When I look at all the videos, appears that its only made to replace the stock unit (replace the OEM track bar bolt .... and the tie rod end clamps to a stock diameter tie rod.)

Thanks in advance for your input.

That's correct, the tie rod clamp will only fit the stock diameter. I've seen rock krawler modify the clamp to fit their larger tie rod. If you go with the ATS you will need to modify it for your application.

Fox makes a bigger tie rod clamp for aftermarket tie rods for these.

I'm running the ATS stabilizer with a synergy tie rod. Since the bracket is two piece, so it fits a variety of different diameter tie rods.

As for the frame side, it comes with a replacement track bar bolt that also acts as a mount for the tie rod. Some people use that included new bolt and others use aftermarket steering stabilizer mounts.

I did not want to remove the 9/16 bolt so I just found a 1/2 laying around. It bolted right up.
