you get what you pay for. probably gonna be from KORE, Carli, Thuren or Lorenz. those seem to be the most widely accepted high end suspensions on here. But if it is what i think it is... I dont think there is much stress on it, so i dont see why you would need a ultra strong(ie ultra expensive).

The track bar from Lorenz is the Thuren bar just wtih zinc plating for added corrosion protection. The Thuren bar seems to be the most popular choice, and for good reason, I'll be getting one soon.

The Thuren, Carli and Lorenz bar are the same. The KORE bar looks nice but is more money. I don't see the need for a chromoly track bar. I also like the bushed end on Don's bar. It helps cut down on NVH.

I've got a Carli bar. AKA a Thuren copy. Check other suppliers I save a nice chunk using a non corperate seller, ie not Carli, Thuren, or Lorenz. My supplier even paid shipping, which can be a chunk of money depending on where you live.

It's not a Thuren copy, it's a Thuren sold by Carli...

I have the Thuren piece, and it *is* nice. Too bad I had someone else install it, because they didn't center the axle properly... I would have installed, measured, remove, adjust and reinstall for perfect centering of the axle.

There's another one made that's adjustable when mounted in the truck, making install and alignment easier. I just forgot who makes it.
