Rear Long Arm Durotrak Track Bar - Jeep TJ/LJ Wrangler

The rear track bar version for vehicles with a long arm suspension - a different length and geometry than the short arm version.

The Durotrak bushing

A patented two-part vulcanised elastomer bushing that rotates freely through 360 degrees in the vertical plane while minimising horizontal forces. In practice: the axle stays centred and vibration and noise do not reach the steering wheel. It is the usual answer to track bar clunk in an older TJ.

Gold Zinc finish

Steel parts are gold zinc plated. Zinc protects the steel electrochemically even where it is scratched, and the surface stays paintable. On a twenty-year-old Jeep that matters more than on a new one.

Specification

• Track bar: 4130 solid chromoly
• Durotrak bushing: patented vulcanised elastomer
• Finish: Gold Zinc
• Fitment: Jeep TJ and LJ Wrangler 1997-2006

After installation: the manufacturer recommends a suspension specialist aligns the vehicle after any work on the suspension or steering.

Installation

Easy. 1-2 hours.

A note on vehicle age

TJs and LJs are now twenty to nearly thirty years old. Expect seized bolts and corroded frame threads when removing factory parts - soak the joints in penetrant beforehand and use anti-seize on reassembly. Several reviews of TJ parts are really about this rather than about the part.

We import this product directly from the MetalCloak factory in the USA. Please contact us for the current lead time before placing an order.
