DIY TJ trackbar

[Gordo]

I've searched the 8 pages of trackbar posts on here but failed to find pics of stock TJ trackbar with a sleeve and tierod end attached to replace the non-serviceable tie-rod style end (hope this makes sense...)

Has anyone seen pics of something like this around ?

eg stock Jeep trackbar, failed end hacked off, sleeved and standard tierod end attached to make a cheap adjustable trackbar with beef.

TIA

I've personally never seen one set up that way and then I wouldn't bother either. Besides flattening out at the bend, they also have a nasty habit of bending at the adjuster too.




...and yes, thats my Jeep and yes, it finally broke at the top of Cadillac Hill on the Rubicon. Switched to the Currie system which includes both the tie rod and draglink and couldn't be happier.

drag link ??? I thought the topic was trac bars.

Robert,

Thanks for the info but yeah, Stu is right.. I was specifically after a pic of a diy front trackbar (or panhard rod)

Guess so - all that nonsense about TRE's got me confused. I'll blame it on my age

Wouldn't bother me in the slightest-

Great, so what do I get to use as an excuse?
