Thanks, the Ironrock looks good. I have BDS on my XJ, the springs are good but the rest of it is junk. I broke the sway bar quick disconnects and the ajustable track bar in no time. Had to replace them with JKS

IMO- clayton = MONEY, but beefy as f**k so it won't break. IRO- I know some of the guys there and they make some of the best stuff in the business. tossup between those two, but in the end i'd go with IRO because they're good guys.

My gf's brother broke the bds trackbar too, down at the axle end of the bar. It snapped on the threaded part. BDS was cool and replaced it with a BEEFIER one free.

Thanks CT I'll check them out. BDS would of replaced it but I didn't want the samething happen on the trails. I didn't know they had a beefer one. I called them and they said I had to take it back were I bought it but the place was out of business.

I have the rough country 4 inch on my WJ. its a nice kit, i blew out a set of shocks but they replaced them for free, for 500 bucks its a nice lift. i would just recommend getting a track bar instead of using RC trac-bar drop bracket.

Hmmmm....I've been beating on my BDS parts for some time now without even a hint of a problem...
I guess every once in a while somebody ends up with a flawed product no matter who they're buying from...
BDS is cool about warrenty though. I know a couple of fullsize boys who broke parts driving stupid and BDS replaced it no problem...
From what I hear though, IRO is a pretty solid choice if you're looking at their stuff.

Thanks Aaron I'll check them out. Yes BDS does have a good warrenty, they replaced the springs on the rear of my YJ and the rear of our old XJ after it was totaled out. I've heard from others about their track bars breaking at the threaded part. On the sway bar disconnects the plastic and spring part fell of while they were disconnected and when I went to hook them up from the trails they were gone. I loved the BDS on my YJ but not on my XJ, the front coils ride like a rock. I thought when I got the new bumper and winch the added weight would soften it up, but it didn't.
