Adjustable Trac Bar

Puttin the bigger lift on soon and need to get a different trac bar, have the normal adjustable from RE. But I'm going to do the HD RE trac bar with their mount or the rustys HD trac bar package, anyone running either of these tell me which i should get. The Rusty's is alot cheaper but i know cheaper isnt always better. Thanks for any help guys.

You answered you own question. I have not had any personal issues with the Rusty's TB I owned, Std and HD, but the guy I gave it to has broken it twice. So far right at the threads.

I got the Rusty's setup, with the frame brace. the HD trac bar + mount work great, but when I tried to mount the frame brace it wouldn't fit properly at all. Rusty said he would mod it if I sent it back (my cost) but I just drilled a hole in the HD mount and bolted the brace to it instead. I did this after looking at my buddies RE set up and saw thats the way they set it up in the first place.
the RE setup seems to be a beefier rig, and the frame brace is attached to the HD mount using seperate bolts and holes. Rusty's brace uses the same bolt as the trac bar, which I would think puts added stress on that bolt, and since it mounts lower on the mount itself, will torque the mount more than mounting it above the trac.
see the pic, the RE mount the framce brace higher and use its own bolt sto attach it.

looks nicer to me, wish I had spent the extra money , hope this helps

i really like my T&T trackbar setup. have you looked into that one?

Thanks for the pic and the input guys. Really leaning towards the RE set up now. I have tnt stiffeners and their y-link long arm kit. I saw their and i like it too. Only downfall is that they dont make a stiffener for it. But i like it as well. Thanks for the help guys
