Default Attention new JK owners!!!!

I just finished reading another broken track bar bracket thread. Seriously, if any of you are going to lift or plan on keeping your JK a while, reinforce your front and rear track bars. Its not a matter of if, it is when. Its not the "prettiest" mod, but it will save you some grief. If your going at a decent speed and your bracket grenades off your axle, you are going to have problem after problem. Your control arm holes may be wallowed, balljoints shot, tie rod shot, etc etc etc etc, you get my point. Death wobble essentially may possibly destroy your suspension, and may end your life. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE go and reinforce these axle mounts.

X2

X4 if you have a trackbar relocation bracket. Even if you don't have one, reinforce it (axle side and frame side).

Is there a guide on this? I'd love to use the search function but it doesn't work so well on these forums.

There are several companies that make trackbar braces. Here is a thread of the JKS brace:
