Howdy,
Looking to tighten up the front end on my truck, both bars seem top notch, is one better than the other for the price difference?
My truck that is a street queen 90% of the time with some mild/slower offroad exploring, I will be doing some overland shocks at the same time (truck has 43K).

Re: Thinking of upgrading my trackbar, Carli or Thuren?
I second the Thuren. I haven't tried the Carli so don't have it to compare to, but I've had my Thuren for over a year and zero issues with it. Death wobble was gone when I added it, and has never returned. Very well built pieces of metal.

Re: Thinking of upgrading my trackbar, Carli or Thuren?
I have all Thuren stuff. Hit a wash out hard enough to bend the axle housing and crack the pumpkin. All Thurens part were not harmed. His axle truss is going on the new one.

I only do what the majority of the 4 voices in my head tell me to. In most cases, I ignore two of them because one doesn't speak English, and I suspect the other is talking to someone else.

Re: Thinking of upgrading my trackbar, Carli or Thuren?
I chose Thuren and never looked back! Been a great addition to my truck and no issues what so ever.
