88whitemanche Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Looks like the latest rough country one. http://www.roughcountry.com/forged-adjustable-track-bar-1042.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikekaz1 Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 weird design, ive never seen one like that. all that ive seen use the threaded bar rod end. but I do like this concept as you don't have to remove the bar to adjust the position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOrnbrod Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 ^^ Si. I have one on my rig. Teraflex Adjustable Trackbar, 1743022Teraflex Adjustable Trackbar Bushing, 4313320 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then only the lower part with the bushing would be custom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strokermjcomanche Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 Thanks for all the help guys !! Bushing is on the way ... A friend gave it to me and I only have the cost of the bushing , I just need to swap the frame bracket with a newer Xj one . I really like this style too , as it doesn't need to be taken off to adjust it . Thanks again guys .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Another plus for this bar is that you don't have to drill out the axle mount hole to install it. Hopefully the truck you are installing it on it on hasn't been drilled out or the hole isn't wallowed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still in the process of locating a hp30 4:10 axle , but the 3:07 axle currently in the truck is in good shape . I'm debating on putting it on now or just waiting till I find an axle / regear and I have the WJ LCAs to install too . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 These Teraflex bars are over $200 now new. :eek: Way back when I got mine it was slightly less than $100 shipped. And I thought that was expensive. It must be nice to get one for free. Bastid......... :rotfl2: :rotfl2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbyluvv Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I have one on Onyx. It's been on there for at least 6 years. For me it is worth every penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strokermjcomanche Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 Tried to install this today along with the frame side bracket from a 95 XJ . The taper doesn't seem correct , what bracket do I need to get for this to work ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyComanche Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Too big or too small? If it's too big of a hole, it might be wallowed out. Their instructions seem to indicate that it works with the factory bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 The track bar bracket p/n changed in 1991. Don't know what the difference is though. maybe you should check out a 90 and below bracket to see if they are the same. I had zero problems installing the Teraflex bar on my 91. The hole taper and ID was fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strokermjcomanche Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 The hole was too small , the castle nut wouldn't tighten enough to put the cotter pin in . Maybe a shorter nut ?? I will try to compare the newer and older and see if there are any differences . Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyComanche Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 That will happen with TREs from time to time. Either keep tightening it, or clean the hole up with a taper reamer. Just don't strip it... I've also drilled a new hole on them in custom applications where I didn't want to ream the hole any deeper. Nothing from Teraflex indicates that it shouldn't fit.

Rockfrog Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 I think the length may have changed at some point but that's about it. When I replaced the stock Tracbar on my MJ the new one pushed the axle over to the passenger side about 1/2". The Moog spec said it cover all years. The taper was the same.

shelbyluvv Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 I know my 86 has a different TB mount. The hole is way smaller than the one I got out of the JY from a 97 XJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87Warrior Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Correct, the '86 has a smaller diameter hole than the later model. Most manufacturers don't know this. But that shouldn't be the problem unless the OP accidentally bought an '86 mount that was swapped on a '95. I can put the micrometer to the '86 mount I pulled off my truck if you'd like. My guess is the taper on the track bar end is smashed so it's not seating in the mount correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
