Ah gotcha, last thing I want to do is piss someone who I’ve never talked to off'twas a joke 'cause we know each other.
The only thing you have to drill is the frame mount for the trackbar. There should be a 5/8" or so bolt for that. You should not need to drill either joint or the axle side mount.

Do you notice more vibration/discomfort from the different joint with less rubber material? I've got the same decision to make as OP but I have $75 off at northridge and they only offer TJJ, not TJS. Is it correct to conclude that the only downside to the TJJ is the axle side joint?
There is no noticeable difference in the ride comfort at all - the only disadvantage I know of is the bushing has significantly less flex than stock which puts more strain on axle bracket. I’m not sure if that ever makes a difference. Sounds like a good deal from north ridge.
Long story short I ordered the TJS from Savvy along with the BMB ARP bolt and flag nut. Well the package arrived today and it looks like they sent the TJJ version.
So now im trying to figure out if i should just run the run the TJJ version. The axle side mount is basically a small johnny joint which i thought was supposed to be superior for the joints ability to flex?
It appears as though they now come with a JJ axle side.

Edit: I don't even see the TJJ now as an option, only the TJS with an axle side JJ and 1/2" bolt.

Interesting. That is a new design that wasn't available a year ago. To put a JJ on the axle side means they found a way to address to keep the bar from flopping around. I would also like to see how the lower joint and bar comes out of the axle mount.
@mrblaine?
Is there a difference in the offset improvement between the TJS and TJJ? The TJJ says:
"The all new and improved Johnny Joint trac bar for the TJ/XJ/LJ/MJ features an offset Johnny Joint rod end that puts the bar further forward providing more clearance between the diff and the trac bar."
"The all new and improved Johnny Joint trac bar for the TJ/XJ/LJ/MJ features an offset Johnny Joint rod end that puts the bar further forward providing more clearance between the diff and the trac bar."
I think it would have to be. I wonder if this new JJ is compatible with the old bars.
It figures, I did a bunch of research, ordered the TJS, and now see this!
The interesting thing is even the box says TJS. I guess they are still getting rid of the TJS nomenclature.

I feel your pain. I Ordered the ARP bolt to replace my stock one for use with the TJS system....
Im not sure what the new TJJ bar is supposed to cost but I paid the TJS price on Savvy's website.
https://www.rockjock4x4.com/CE-9120TJSThey only list the TJS now and no longer offer the TJJ. It's $423.
I missed the picture. That should fit the old bars!
Now I wonder how RJ keep the bar from flopping around.
