Great value for the money
Justin 18 days ago
I bought this to upgrade my stock tie rod assembly in preparation for 40" tires. The quality is excellent and this is much much beefier than the original. So far I have 3,000 road miles and 5 wheeling trips to Ouray/Telluride and Moab without any issues. Highly recommended.

Steer Smarts Yeti Extreme Tie Rod Assembly

Great piece of mind
Justin 18 days ago
I just bought these in preparation for a big wheeling trip out west. We did 3 trails in Ouray/Telluride and then 2 more in Moab followed by driving the Jeep home 1,500 miles. I'm running 35"s now but will be upgrading over the winter to 40"s and am slowly upgrading the drivetrain to handle it. The install went great and was very straightforward. My original axles had 123,000 miles on them and were in good shape with no leaks. I paid to have the seals and bearing pre-installed so it was a quick install. All and all i'm very happy with the axles. They made the trip and have roughly 3,000 miles on them without issue. I only wish RCV made rear axles for JKR's but this was a great option. Highly recommended

Ten Factory Rubicon Dana 44 Axle Kit Rear

Great replacement top
Justin 4 months ago
I bought this to replace the 10 year old sun baked RC soft top on my daughters TJ. I was impressed at how well the previous top lasted so it was a no brainer to purchase another RC soft top. The tinted rear windows is a huge bonus.

Rough Country Replacement Soft Top - Black Denim

Excellent product

I recently installed these on my 2015 JKU Rubicon. It is used as a general off road rig but primarily used at the Silver Lake sand dunes. I upgraded my shock package and it was time to upgrade to hydraulic bump stops. I've installed other companies foam filled cans and they're just not worth the upgrade over stock. These however are worth every penny. I spent a lot of time cycling my suspension with the springs removed to get every bit of up travel possible and i'm extremely happy with the results.

Fox Factory Race Series 2.0 Front Bump Stops IFP - Pair

GREAT kit!
Justin 11 months ago
I have installed other companies truss kits previously and I will say that this is the best fitting truss for my front Rubicon D44. I went through the trouble of sand blasting the housing which makes welding so much better. I TIG welded the entire truss and it turned out GREAT. I was worried the case spreader wouldn't work after the truss was installed but I was able to get it spread enough to easily install the differential afterwards. There's 2,000 miles on the install now including a trip to Moab and a trip to Kansas Rocks with no issues. The axle just looks killer now as a bonus.

EVO Manufacturing ProTek Dana 44 Axle Truss Front

Great Quality Driveshaft
Justin 11 months ago
I bought this to upgrade after tearing the boot on the original driveshaft on my 2015 JKU Rubicon. I went with the 1350 so it should be the last driveshaft I need. I'm running 3.5" lift and 35" tires. I just got back from a 1,000 mile trip where there was no vibrations at all on the highway and it performed flawlessly in the rocks. All and all i'm extremely happy. I will say that I've previously bought driveshafts from the other big name and the JE Reel is just a bit better in quality and craftsmanship.

Leaked BAD after one trip
Justin 12 months ago
I purchased 2 of these seals when I recently rebuilt my Rubicon's front axle and to weld on a truss kit. I used the correct case spreader to remove and install the differential. I also used the correct seal press to install the new seal properly into the housing. The next weekend I trailered my Jeep to Moab and the passenger side started pouring out gear lube half way through Fins and Things. I was extremely disappointed with this. Yes I lubed the splines and shaft before I installed them. My guess is that the front locker put too much stress on the seal and led it to leak. When I got home I tore the axle down and installed a standard single lip seal and so far no leaks after a few hundred highway miles.

Dana 30/44 Inner Axle Seal

Great quality and value
Justin 12 months ago
I recently installed a front weld on truss kit on my Rubicon D44 which required removal of the stock trac bar and bolt on raised trac bar bracket. This left me needing an adjustable trac bar. This is a VERY high quality piece. Also, the part that goes over the differential cycled all the way to the bumps without coming anywhere close to rubbing anywhere. This was my biggest concern and I was very happy with how well this trac bar worked. The joints are very nice and appear to be very high quality as well. It would be nice if a tube of moly grease came with since every suspension manufacturer requires some crazy unobtanium grease for their parts. All and all I'm very happy with the bar.

Great links for custom applications
Justin 12 months ago
I recently removed the bolt on 3.5" extended brackets that came with my lift to install a weld on truss kit. I wanted to go back to the stock sway bar mount locations on the axle since the brackets would no longer work. These JKS end links were the perfect solution to get my sway bar geometry back to where it needed to be. There's plenty of length to trim them to whatever length you need. I have an electronic disconnect sway bar so I didn't want disconnecting links. They seem to be very high quality. Only time will tell how long they last, but I'm pretty hopeful it will be a long time. They survived four different difficult 4 hour trails in Moab so far without issue.

JKS Sway Bar Endlinks

Great product but needs help with the anodizing
Justin 1 year ago
I installed these on my 2015 Rubicon Unlimited and am very happy with the quality of the seals. It does state in the description that the orange anodizing could fade and it was very accurate. My Jeep is garage kept and only a summer time daily driver getting driven around 3,000 miles per year. Then it's parked in the garage for 4-5 months during the winter. Even with that limited exposure to the sun, the seals quickly fade to silver. This is my only complaint, otherwise they are a welcomed modification to keep water and sand out of the axle tubes.
