Works great

Works great with the 8.8 truss kit. Not sure why its not included by default but no biggie. May require some trimming depending on your pinion angle.

Review

Purchased this along with the full 8.8 kit for my TJ. This will not work if using the stock swaybar. I had to cut the tabs on 8.8 housing this bolts on to for sway bar to clear. ARTEC please advise this on your products info that this will not work with stock swaybars. Returned item. Just weld tubes to housing.
