I would go with Serious Offroad. FrankZ is a great person to deal with and makes top notch stuff. I currently have his front bumper and long armz. As soon as money permits I will be buying his steering setup as well. He is a vendor, he supports this site, you should support him!

If your on a budget you can get a set-up from a pull apart from a V-8 Grand. It's a bolt in and is much more heavy duty then the XJ's.

Just get rid of the Crappy Y steering while your at it, I wouldn't do the GC TRE, go with the inverted T. Also the over the knuckle can have bump steer if you don't change the track bar mount hieght. I would go with one of these.

I would also throw these on with any of the above setups.
