Rough Country Forged Adjustable front track bar?

[kapk22]

Will this do the job for 2” Mopar lift and 37x13.50 nitto mud grapplers?

I read that some other bars are a little excessive.

Or,, is it worth it to go with the Synergy?

just seems a bit smaller and concerned it might not be as dependable

Short answer is yes, they’ll work fine. The long winded explanation why is......

When I bought my Rubi some of the main lift companies were still working on their lifts for the new JL platform. Not wanting to rock it stock for who new how long, and not wanting to put on spacer lift, I opted for the Mopar lift.

When I got it on it gave me 3.5” of lift so I needed to address the geometry. Knowing I was going with RK when they got their lift dialed in, I went with the cheapest parts, which turns out to be RC.

Not a fan of RC from past experiences, but they’ve stepped up their game with their JL parts, at least with their adj. track bar and their adj. front lcas. I was very impressed how well they worked and held up. I wheeled the crap out of that lift, and it still getting wheeled regularly on my buddy’s Sahara.

Now this is just my experience with these parts, and only an opinion, others may have different experience and opinions. And for the record, I’m still not a fan of RC. ......

I’m not an RC fan either. However, the review on them seems pretty good. As long as it works the way it should, I’m good with them.

I have the rough country front adjustable track bar and has been fine for me. I’m running mopar lift with 37s on my rubicon. Also have their dual steering stabilizer as well. 13000ish miles on the setup now and I should check the bushings to see if they’ve worn much. For $150 I believe it was it has been worth it. Not a great pic but the only one I could find on my phone

well, I received a message from CJpony this morning saying the bar ships direct from Rough Country with a lead time of ten days. And,,,, when I got home at 7pm, the package was there.

Perfect timing for the Sunday install.

Rough Country has pretty great shipping from what we've experienced - I ordered the front diff skid and received it quickly, and my son got their lift for his KJ, which arrived before Quadratec even sent me shipping info. My buddy also put their rock lights on his Silverado, and they are super nice.

+1 on the RC track bars. I have them front & rear. only “issue” is the holts for the clamp that were included with mine started rusting.

swapped them for some yellow zinc bolts and all good.

Just an update on this. I will NEVER buy another Rough Country product. Bushings in control arms and Track Bar are already toast. Hope this helps others.

Just curious how many miles you put on them? What type of wheeling did you do?

Not a fan of rough country but As long as you’re using an adjustable tracking bar, your one step ahead of most people, they just put the lift on. I went with the steer smarts yeti. Very happy with it. They have it in Black or Red
