JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

What percentage of production parts are made in the USA?
TeraFlex has several thousands of parts in inventory used for suspension,brakes, bumpers, axles etc that TeraFlex sells. It would be a HUGE task to go through everything just to answer questions like these. Sorry it's not going to happen.

+1. No need to train wreck a thread over where Teraflex makes their parts.

I've got 2 friends that had their TF trackbars break in the same day, one of them after we made a rescue run to fix the first one. They both broke in the same spot, at the threads, clean snap. They were both under warranty, and replaced quickly. TF did, as far as I know, make an upgrade to fix the problem and inprove the life of them. I will be looking at upgrading my whole front steering system and plan on going TF, mostly due to thier warranty performance, I think that says more for a company than where they get thier materials. You only want to buy it once, right?

They don't have anything to hide, that is not fair of you to say that. Go ask Dell where each capacitor and resistor in one of their PCs is made, theyll tell you to go jump off a cliff. It really does not matter where the hell their parts are made. Production nowadays is so global, really it should be stamped Made on Earth. So if your steel is made in the US, by a Mexican, with a Chines blast furnace, transported by a Phillipino, with a Sweedish 18 wheeler. (I could go on and on). Nothing is solely manufacutred in one country.
