2020 JL 2 door, TSB is done still would like to stiffen up steering. All stock. I have been reading and seaching here for the best option of the two mentioned above. No lift in the future I am just looking to better the steering, really the new box is not that much improvement. Just confused on what the best option would be, not really offroading more of a grocery getter.

Best bet for your description of usage is the Mopar longer front lower control arms. The best $70 you can spend. They will get your caster to something reasonable and will drive much better. Plus they are a Mopar part that looks identical to stock so no dealership blues over warranty issues.

I'd not change track-bars or steering stabilizers if you will never take it really off road. No point. Keep the factory parts so you have the warranty.

Thank you for the reply. Looking at lower front control arms right now. I did buy the track bar but it's still in the box.

If itā€™s not a financial burden, Iā€™d hang on to the track bar, grocery getter today, but as soon as you take a short cut one day , the bug will bite you. Next thing you know, long arms, coil overs, tons and 40s......šŸ˜

The track bar may not even fit as most are longer than stock to accommodate for a lift.

Yep I have ridden motorcycles off road so you are probably on to something here.

You guys are evil. I at least respect the ones who say grocery/mall haulers ;)
