Track bar rating

[Goatman]

Looking on the Quadratec website . Need a new adjustable front trackbar. Would really prefer to keep stock type frame side mount. (Not drilling a hole for a bolt) It seems that I have a choice of Rustys, Rough Country, or Rancho. I have a 2" OME lift so it has to be adjustable. Every other that I have found is either a lot more money or have to drill out the mount. I dont want to buy cheap stuff, just affordable things. Are any of these a solid bar? I only want to buy it once. But the more affordable the better. How do these rate?

If they are hollow, are they at least a good thick tube that wont flex?

The Rough Country one is actually very good for your lift. Dave at Jeep West uses those RC track bars on all his mild builds with the 2.5” OME lift.

I asked him in depth why this is, and he said that the Rough Country bar has no interference with anything compared to some of the other track bars.

So the RC track bar is hands down the one I would go with.

To add to what Chris said, the RC uses readily available MOOG ends, so no waiting for speciality ends. I was going to get an RC one for my Jeep, but ended up getting a JKS one.
