I'm leaning towards the second one. Just wanna make sure I'm not taking anything for granted. The order is going through SeriousOffroad. I was considering other track bars but Rubicon is good stuff and I'm ordering my Leaf packs and coils through the same place so it kinda makes sense...

What's a "TRE"? and will I need a bracket?
Here is a link to the second track bar we're talking about.

Tie rod end...
That's the replaceable rod end the first ones description is talking about.
The second one is double shear. You need to get a RE bracket (or other) to use it. It wont mount right to the stock bracket.
It makes it a bit more expensive but worth it imo

Thanks for not pointing out my inability to read. It said that right in the description... LOL! So that would be a double shear bar with the bracket?

Sorry. Wasn't familiar with the acronym. I've done tie rods before. Thank you for the excellent replies and as you can see I've completed my purchase. It's a piece together. I've got shocks lower control arms a transfer case drop kit and some other odds and ends from rough country too. Looking at getting a little closer to paint this weekend.

I know what a tie rod end is though. Thanks for clarifying.
I'd still go with the other one though.
