2 reasons.

3 link and they dont screw with my crossmember. i love the flex a 3 link will give you and i really dont like the cross members all the kits come with. im wanting to do a entire flat bottom under carriage.

also the brand is pretty bad ***. they know what their doing thats for sure.

Awesome Jeep and nicely done build thread too. What made you decide to get rid of the first RC track bar you were running, did you have issues with it? I bought the same one but I'm only planning to run it with a 3" lift and 31's.

i bent it wheeling. 35's and a extremely heavy right foot breaks stuff easily. with 33's and 31's it worked great for me
