I'm not buying rock krawler again. I had problems with their trackbar since the day I got it and they kept telling me it wasn't possible. I replaced the heim end and it worked fine but they wouldn't help me out on it at all. (this is when it was brand new)

You mean that in the sense of im getting all stock parts again? Of course I am but I can more properly prepare for things down the road the second time around.

Price for the quality. The Synergy is fine. My preference is the Teraflex front trackbar.

If you don't run a drop pitman arm and run 35s or smaller, I don't think you need a sector shaft brace.

For 37s the brace would be nice, but if you are doing hard core wheeling, you should do hydro assist anyway--which reduces the stress on the sector shaft.

Picked up a HF ball joint kit for $60

Got the alloy USA set for $120 shipped

Maybe il get lucky an this is my issue. Of course my ABS light and Check engine came on two. Now I need a left wheel speed sensor and have to clean or replace my EGR valve.

On the bright side, who doesn't enjoy an excuse to buy new tools.
