adjustable control arms which brand and why

[MidnightMods]

Its coming time for a new lift kit in my JKUR,
What arms should I go and why?

I have had JKS and a few other brands before. Just trying to work out which way I should go again.

I have synergy and they're good quality and I have had no issues

although right now i miss the rubber bushings of the stock arms.

I'd have a look at Metalcloak game changer kits now though because of the geometry and bushings (although i'm not a fan of the yellow)

What size lift?

I had Synergy arms as well with my ~2" to fix the caster, but then went back to OEM with AEV drop brackets for the smoother ride. They were good arms & easily adjustable to get them the right length while in situ.

Yellow can be fixed with a rattlecan!

I have the synergy lift 3.5", and would go the metal cloak ones too.

I have synergy and would now like to try metalcloak arms. The bushings in metalcloak require to be removed once a year and regreased/cleaned, so maybe keep that in mind.

I believe synergy fixed length arms now have their new rubber bushing both ends also. The synergy arms are great quality, but from what i have read, the metalcloak arms may give some ride quality back.

looks like we all think the synergy arms give a bit of a rough ride!

I wouldnt say its due to one brand of control arm, more just the fact you loose rubber bushes on both ends with most aftermarket arms and increased control arm angle due to lift will give the rougher ride.

I dont want to use drop brackets so im stuck with the increased arm angle. But have thought about changing to metalcloak to regain rubber bushes on both ends again.

Im not even sure this would improve the ride quality by much. I just like throwing money away on the jeep
