I don't have any personal experience but have heard nothing but good about the jks. Also the rubicons look weak to me.

The RE kit that I bought came with the ones that you have listed. I hated them, they were cheap, noisy, and and kinda hard to disconnect when on an incline. After about a month of having them on my jeep I sold them and bought some JKS ones. They are amazing. Quiet, easy to connect and disconnect, and they are grease-able. Maybe the ones that I got were just part of a bad batch, but for the price why not go with the "better" brand. And by better I mean better when it comes to making disconnects, RE makes amazing lift kits.

JKS seems pretty good. My roomie just got some for her TJ so maybe I'll just wait a bit to see how they hold.
