That eliminated the need for a ****ty relocation bracket, just adjust it longer?? How long has yers been on there?? trying ot get a feel for howlong the solid chassis end joint will last.. I had a similar trackbar installed on my Cherokee... and it was sloppy inl ess than 15,000 miles....
thanks in advance...

mines been on there for about 2k and so far it looks ok, I did have a problem however on the initial install, the frame bolt needed to be torqued down to 400 ft lbs which I didnt know, so it came loose. the axle end needed to be something like 250 ft lbs, once both were torqued down good, its working fine now. I have to say that it is a beefy bar, as for long term durablity, time will tell. you could go over to pavementsucks.com and ask how long they are lasting over there. both ends are re-buildable.
