    Gomez needs some upGrading, haven't got any shimmies Death wobble, but I want to do the work before it gets to that stage.

    Rusty's, Teraflex, Currie, and Rugged Ridge

    Want bullet proof on a budget...

    Currie is amazing but definitely not budget. No experience with the rest.

    Ironman Andy (owner) is a good dude and builds some beefy stuff.
    I am currently sitting on his control arms, track bar, steering box brace, and shackle relocation brackets that will be going on my 93 XJ.

    TF has a good rep for the TR + DL that are stronger than OEM

    Anyone running the TFHD setup? I have scoured the net looking for instructions or video for installation

    This is some thing I'm considering down the road. I like the TR kit aggrex posted. But..is there any one running Skyjacker Rock Ready ball joints? I know their fairly new. And not cheap. But from what I've been reading and seeing. They look like a solid ball joint upgrade. Are they worth the money? And do they work as advertised?

    Hi Aggrex, thanks for the .pdf, but that application is for a JK. I have a TJ.

    Got a hold of Ironman, Love the kit but requires reaming out where the ball joints go...
    I would rather go full bolton if possible. Still kicking it around, just don't have the tools
