DSS trac bar going out . ?whats going to replace

Long story short my DSS trac bar and upper bracket need to go. I have a 6" lift on the truck. Thuren and lazarsmith are the only companies I know with a beefed up trac bar that I can use with a lift. So who has either one of these trac bars and how do you like them.

Don't think you can go wrong with either. I know The LazarSmith is stout.... and if 1/2 of what I've heard and seen is true, the Thuren is it's equal.

well I know what lazersmiths would cost me plus I can get it powder coated in a couple colors for free and shipping is free. thuren Im on day 4 and have left 2 messages to try and get a price$ I dont even know how much it is. but yes the lazersmiths bracket I like a little better than having to weld like thuren but I'm still thinking on them as soon as thuren calls.

finally got in touch with Don thuren and he said they will be out of stock for at least few months. he recommended where else to look and also offered if I sent him pictures of what I did when I made the bracket that I currently have he may be able to give me advice on it for now. so it looks to be possible lazersmith or DT profab. but not to bolt the bracket weld it on. he said.
