I have a Zabteck bar, and unlike the EE bar, it doesn't rub my brake lines.
EE's service has gone down the drain IMO. Last thing I ordered, they called and told me that the prices were incorrectly listed on the site, and it would be $XX more, is it okay to go ahead and charge it? It's over a year later, and the price on that item remains the same, which to me, is a "bait and switch" routine. I've never had that problem with Zabteck.
Todd also specializes in Sport Tracs (he owns 2 of them), unlike EE which also does Rangers, several generations of Explorers, and then they have a few things for the Sport Trac. Therefore, Zabteck (owner and employees all have Sport Tracs) knows their sh!t and knows what will and won't work b/c they've tried it before. If they went so far as to re-engineer something already made, doesn't that tell you something about the new product vs. the old product?
Plus, you can call Zabteck any time you have a problem installing something and they're more than willing to help. I've never used EE's customer service (or lack thereof) but when I can call a company (Zabteck), and the owner can go outside, look at his vehicle, and see exactly what I'm talking about and help with the problem, that scores points in my book.
