Synergy ball joints and synergy drag link.
Just installed both on my '08 Rubi and I'm liking both products. Next up for me is a synergy tie rod

Same here. Love both of them. Big tires will wear out factory parts faster than you think.

As everyone else has mentioned Synergy is the way to go. The products are very beefy and very reasonably priced. PM us if you would like quotes on anything.

Like everyone said, Synergy is great. I installed Synergy ball joints, tie rod and drag link a couple of weeks ago.

The drag link is WAY more stout than the OEM. Just make sure you dont unthread the ends any before installing. I thought I was being smart by adjusting mine to match the OEM length before I installed it and ended up having to take it all back off and fix it.
