Ive gone through 2 TF ss's. 1 was on stock suspension with stock wheels and the other was with 3.5RK and 35's. So either way you slice it they are garbage. Ordering the bilstein ss as I type this.

The JK doesn't even need a SS at all if properly torqued, let alone two.

Regarding TF stabilizer, I got one and had it on for only a few months and it is garbage. At full turn, it got pressed against the bracket and it put a tiny dent in it where all the fluid leaked out. The stock one got dented and it still holds fluids and works fine. Seems the tube wall is pretty weak for an off-road damper.
So I just got the Billstein because of this thread. One thing though, is it supposed to push out like a shock?? Wouldn't this push the the steering towards the left? The stock or TF one did not push out like this. Just curious if this is normal.
