Only thing better is still having them both, IMHO.
Re: Dont jump your jeep
The control arms would have let go if the driver was on the brakes when he landed. The wheels couldn't turn and would twist the suspension like a pretzel. I've seen this on cars with only a pothole and on the brakes to blame. It's likely the Jeep only failed because of a panicking driver on the brakes.
