Rough Country gives you the adjustable track bar and the bracket + hardware for $130. A lot cheaper than the above $170 combination and I recommend it because I have it and had no problems with it:

Some things are more important than the bottom line.

That was Rusty's.... never seen a post about an RC track bar snapping... It's rusty's crappy welds
I have the Iron Rock Offroad double sheer trackbar, and love it. I was amazed at how heavy and solid it was when it got here.

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link... i would never run anything that uses the stock bolts. (Broke a few myself before i upgraded to 1/2" then ultimately 9/16" in my custom trackbar) never fun having to track down a bolt in the middle of the woods and having to install it when for a few bucks more you wouldhave never had an issue. How about the time one of my bolts let go on the street, that could have ended much worse than it did.
Rockkrawler has been the best bargain out there for quite some time in my opinion.

RC makes two different track bars.
One for up to 4" lift and other 4-6" lift (something like that.) The lower lift one uses a TRE for the frame side mount and reuses stock track bar mount. The one for bigger lifts uses a heim joint of some sort Nd comes with a née double shear frame side mount. My dad has one of the later ones. Its plenty beefy. I have a IRO track bar waiting to go in my 91 its super stout... down right heavy in a good way. But I wouldn't call the better RC track bar a POS, and it is a good price. If I wasn't already ordering steering and other things from IRO I would have went with the RC
