Jeep tj adjustable front track bar

Jeep Wrangler TJ 1997-2006, Jeep Wrangler LJ 2004-2006 Adjustable Front Trackbar W/Drop Bracket

Our adjustable track bar gives you the strength and adjustability your lifted Jeep needs. A forged johnny joint is used at the frame end, and a dual durometer, maintenance free, high quality GIIRO Joint bushing is pressed into a machined housing on the axle end. What is different about this trackbar is the lower bushing.

Many customers have complained that their stock, or previous trackbar has loosened up and damaged and egged out the factory hole. This trackbar uses a much larger 9/16s Grade 8 bolt to allow you to drill out your factory location and easily upgrade to this HD bushing. 

Put it simply, this is the strongest, most adjustable track bar on the market. Track bar comes powdercoated black. Comes with a 9/16 hardware and a new lower flange tab to fit into the OE location at the axle side. The heavy duty 5/16 laser cut trackbar drop bracket lowers the trackbar angles. The bracket bolts into the OEM location for alignment purposes ONLY, and needs to be fully welded for superior strength over a bolt on design bracket. This bracket not only minimizes trackbar angles, but puts the bolt in double sheer adding strength. By using the track bar in double sheer you eliminate any chance of over flexing the joint.

  • Track bar - Center to Center Min = 31-1/8", Max = 32-3/16"

NOTE: 1. Drilling and welding is required to install this trackbar.

Core 4×4 Tier 3 adjustable front trackbar provides fine-tuned adjustment to center axle for proper alignment and increased articulation.

Not All Builds Are The Same, And Not All Budgets Are Unlimited, that’s why CORE 4×4 builds four levels of adjustable track bars, so you can get the best part to fit your budget. All tiers are a solid upgrade and will work with many lift sizes. Tubing diameter, wall thickness, and bushing selection are the main differences.

  • Tier 3 Adjustable Front track bar designed for the Front suspension position, compatible with 0″ — 6″, 6″+ lift heights.
  • Tier 3 Front track bar built with 1.5″ OD 5/16″ Wall DOM tubing, with Polyurethane on fixed end and Forged Currie Johnny Joint on the adjustable end.

  • Designed and manufactured in Orem, UT, we pride ourselves on quality products. That’s why we offer the unique “You break it. We replace it” lifetime guarantee.

We focus heavily on building quality trackbars that can withstand whatever trail or obstacle you point your wheels at and still handle great on the road. Customer satisfaction and build quality are our top priorities! All our trackbars are built with high-quality materials right here in the USA and carry our unique “You manage to break it. We replace it” lifetime replacement guarantee.

Your Jeep's track bars are a key part in keeping your drive manageable as it helps center the axle - making for a smoother ride, while reducing the potential rollover risk. However, if you are noticing a drift while driving, or the vehicle tends to shimmy unpredictably, it may be time to replace one, or both, of the bars. Plus, if you have lifted the vehicle, then adjustable track bars are a great thing to have.

Swapping out track bars is the perfect way to eliminate unnecessary stress on suspension components while keeping the vehicle in alignment. Heavier duty track bars mount in the factory locations and add strength to prevent wobble in nearly all conditions, while adjustable track bars work well with vehicles that have added a suspension lift as they allow for more wheel travel.

What does an adjustable front track bar do?

And an adjustable track bar allows you to correctly position the axle after making any suspension height changes. Even a leveling kit can move an axle over to the driver's side a bit, putting unneeded stress on suspension parts and making your 4×4 drive slightly sideways.

What does an adjustable track bar do Jeep?

Since the factory track bar is too short to keep the axle centered, the front axle will move toward the driver's side and the rear axle to the passenger side. Adjustable track bars will allow you to re-center the axles and will also add some rigidity to the front suspension and the steering.

Do I need an adjustable track bar with a 2.5 lift?

You do not need an adjustable track bar on a 2.5" lift. Axle shift is minimal, 1/16 to 1/8", you will never notice it.

Is the track bar in Jeep supposed to move?

The trackbar shouldn't move at all. There is a TRE only on the driver side. The other side is connected by a bolt and rubber bushing.
