Just pretzeled my Moog drag link (35's on 6.5, 4.56, locked) and am looking at 3 options (at this point, I'm not interested in going OTK or hydro. I know the advantages, but it will be overkill for where this rig is headed!)

Option 1 - replace with another Moog stock replacement (cheap, apparently quite bendy!)

Option 2 - replace with Synergy Drag Link - looks beefy, but I can't find any opinions - please contribute!

Option 3 - replace the whole front end with JCR's UTK. Heard some good things, but would like to hear some more opinions.

You're not going to hurt my feelings either way.

What are you running for your tie rod now? I'm not sure if a stock or zj rod would work with the synergy kit, however I've got a friend with a JK that swears by synergy stuff, he's running their drag link & flip kit. So if you can swing the money and it would work with your tie rod I'd go that way. I think there was a guy on here that snapped a moog drag link recently and he was on 32s so I'm not sure that's too good of an idea. JCR would probably be a good option too but, then you have to ream out the knuckles and it might mess with your angles a little even though it is utk.

Have you looked at http://www.bleeoffroad.com/ and i hate to tell you but with your lift high you do need over the knuckle steering.

If you are looking at the jcr kit it is worth going to over the knuckle because any way around it you have to ream the knuckles. But on the over the knuckle you have to move the sway bar mount. They sell a kit for those as well.

Over the knuckle you have to replace the track bar and axle mount for it plus the sway bar mounts.

I just went through the flexy tie rod thing myself.
