4x4parts.com (AC) uses only two bolts out of the three factory holes. Calmini uses all three, which means more support and it'll be stronger. That's about the only thing I would buy from Calmini.
Idler arm brace question
Hi,
I have a stock 2000 XE CC 4x4 and would like to start doing some light off-roading. Preliminary research has told me that installing an idler arm brace is a good investment for peace of mind. Is that a good place to begin? If so, I see that Calmini and 4x4 parts.com offer one. Is one "better" than the other?

You need to look at some tougher tie rods. 4x4parts.com has some good ones. They actually have a photo comparing the two. The stock tie rods on our trucks are crappy and if you catch something hard at a funky angle after some wheeling you're more apt to bend a rod or break.
The price difference isn't all that bad either...I think the Calmini idler arm brace is like 10 or 15 bucks more.
