Synergy draglink
About to pull the trigger on the synergy draglink to replace my original which has some slop. Mounting in stock location under the knuckle. Anyone make this ugrade keeping the original tierod?? Tierod will get upgraded in the future but not now, just making sure I'll have no clearance issues between the two.

I put one on mine. Stock location with stock tie rod works perfect. Next day I installed tie rod also. Good products. I had a front end clunk and now it's gone.

I did a slow upgrade to synergy components. Drag link in stock location, then tie rod a few months later, then the trackbar a few months after that, and then finally got around to the front/rear trackbar brackets and the flip.

That's what I plan on doing as well...minus the flip. Good to know that the pieces will work independently while waiting for further upgrades. Although I will have to get some spacers for my stock wheels before the tierod...never ending process these jeeps.

It was the drag link end at the pitman that was moving and clunking.
Synergy DL and no more noises

I'm running their draglink. It's a good solid product. I had an issue with it being too long though. I had to cut an inch or so off of both of the TRE's to make it short enough to correct my steering.

Got this beast installed today. Top grade American made beef 
Install was pretty painless. I had to loosen the pass side tie rod enough to drop it about an inch to get the synergy piece in. After that centering the steering wheel was a bit of a pain too. After a test drive the wheel was still off a little. Not enough to give me a light but about an inch off center. I think I'm good now, shouldn't have to worry about this monster for a LONG time.
