i think you have to buy the bracket seperate
the rubicon one ,including bracket, is about $30 cheaper

was wondering which one you guys would suggest?

I would go with kevins just because I have heard good things about it. Definetly worth the money. I am thinking about ordering when I have the money.

JKS > RE in the trackbar department. I run the JKS's and they're unbelievably BEEF!

The standard JKS front trackbar will give you adequate droop for your lift amount. I'm a vendor for both JKS and Kevin's products, and Kevin's conversion is an excellent product, but you may want to save some money and get the standard JKS trackbar given your lift height.

Either way, I would appreciate the opportunity to earn your business.

I have ordered a few things from Nick (kolak) above and the customer service was outstanding. Probably the best I have received on my jeep so far. I recommend him fully and others will chime in about him as well.

i have the "heavy duty" version RE track bar, with the new mount, its bascially just like the kevin's/jks setup, i'm very happy with it.

x2 for kolak, hes a great guy so if you need some parts go through him, his prices are very fair.
