Rustys vs JCR Steering
I'm looking to upgrade my steering and I'm wondering which is better JCR or Rustys. I'm currently at 6.5" lift and I need new steering bad. Thanks

I dont have any experience with both but I heard good stuff about JCR. You wanna go over the knuckle or just beef up? Hardcore rock crawling? If just beefing up go to the JY and get a ZJ tie rod. Your drag link should be the beefier one. I run Iron Rock's double sheer track bar. No problems with it.

Iron rock or JCR
ORO U-turn is BEEF but EXPENSIVE
Rusty's SUCKS!!! DO NOT BUY IT
I had on my XJ total of two days. couldnt get the toe to come out right and could NOT get the TRE flop out of it, Crappy setup, and thats being generous. not worth the metal used to build it IMO.
Rusty's just sucks from all my experiences
