Default What control arms?

Just getting some feed back,
I am looking at a full set of control arms and not sure what to get.

I currently have a TF 2.5 coil lift, but also have a 3.5 rock krawler that is sitting around and I may move to this ( it is used off a JKU that was running 37 and they went back to a stock when a friend traded it in)

Should I look at a set of TF, Currie, Rock Krawler, or the Rough Country set.

Price is best on the RC's but i know about quality.
TF and Currie are with out question.

Does anyone have an opinion

I will be running 35' on a stock Rubi JKU
I already have adjust front trac bar


Thanks

I have had both the full set of Teraflex and Curie arms (on 2 different jeeps). They're both very well built and I consider it a bit of a tossup.

Rock Krawler, Teraflex, and currie all make great products. I recently have been looking a lot at the currie's.

Hey I'm running the Teraflex front lowers and I was told by Dave at Northridge that my next step would be upper rears. A complete set Is really not needed. I current have a 2.5 unlimited kit In my 2door and netted 3.6 inches of lift. Maybe try it out and go from there!!

I have the TeraFlex fronts and they are very well built. I would think all the brands are pretty similar in quality as you will see.

Default What about cost?

It appears that all area about the same in price except Rough Country.
Is it worth the extra $4-600 for the others?

TeraFlex control arms are adjustable, quiet, rebuildable, greaseable and easy to maintain.

I am running all eight adj. control arms from RC. They are rebuildable, greaseable,also quiet and well built IMO. Currie and RK is a good brand also.
