x2. My evo one has been great but I have nothing to compare it to since it's my first one. I believe the Aev one is a similar set up/design as evo if you want another option

This is what I am running on my JKUR 3" lift 35s. This is only my second JK but best lifted handling I have had.

^^^^this!!!
I've installed both the Synergy and EVO DLF kits. I far prefer the EVO.

Just curious why is that?

I would guess clearance issues. Just guessing.
If you raise the driver sway link mount you will need to weld on the Synergy tab. EVO's is a better design and all bolt on. The Synergy bracket itself will loosen and creak. I ended up welding the one on my wife's Jeep on because it kept getting loose. The Synergy Drag-Link is nice to adjust when new, but is a total bitch after winter (may not be an issue if you don't have much road salt).
In fact, the only thing I like a touch more is the flat face of the Synergy bracket makes adding hydro assist tabs slightly easier.
I haven't actually experienced this, but I do see where the EVO bracket has advantages. :yup:

I was actually referring to the diameter of the synergy drag link.
:blush::doh: I haven't had a problem with that, but you do have to make sure the bend is pretty straight and twist the ends to keep it from flopping down. Otherwise, at full driver stuff and turn it will rip the adjustment valve off of their steering stabilizer. (Ask me how I know) :grayno:

Gotcha. Yeah I dont use the synergy bolt on bracket I use the artec weld on becuase i was adding hydro assist. Also I didnt like the look of the synergy bracket in terms of strength. The artec bracket also makes you weld a new tab for the sway bar link on the drivers side. Wasnt a big deal cause the bracket was already being welded on but for bolt on I can see the evo being a better design. I do use the synergy draglink with no problems other than those rinky dink boots they use.
