Got my synergy drag link flip and JKS trackbar today so I installed this afternoon.. I'm running teraflex 4" coils and teraflex tuned fox shocks (4-6") The trackbar is huge! And a lot heavier than that stock toothpick! I love the adjuster, huge jam nut, and easy to adjust. Same with the drag link, don't have to remove to adjust your steering wheel once you get it all set up. What a huge improvement this made. Jeep has less body roll, tighter steering, and my trackbar is now tight! Ordering the synergy tie rod next! <img src="https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=508069"/>

Yeah my buddy had his synergy tie rod bend up about 4", make contact with his dual SS bracket (black paint rubbed off onto tie rod) and go back down to level. He was amazed and so was I. And that's why I'm ordering that next. Synergy all the way.

Is that the EVO rockstar kit?

How did you raise the shock brackets and how long did it take? Probably a dumb question but I'm still learning

Nope, he re-used the stock brackets after cutting them off.
Cut the old ones off, clean them up, weld them back on a little bit higher. The time to do the job will depend on the tools you've got available and how neat you are with your work. It could take as little as an hour or so but certainly more if you've got a small cut-off wheel instead of a plasma cutter.

I don't notice any difference at all without the sway bar. Its so soft that you can keep it or lose it and it will still perform about the same.

Got a new steering stabilizer.
Got this to hopefully help with bump steer on rough roads at high speeds.
Yes there is a difference in smoothness, but time will tell how effective it is at high speeds.
