I have an OME HD and was wondering who makes the best adjustable trackbar for 2-3.5" lift I say 2-3.5 because I am not sure how much lift I will get after the bumpers ... I have heard problems on this forum with Teraflex & Full Traction...

any suggestions...

 

I have not heard of any problem unless you are referring to a SEPERATE problem with the stress on the OEM(Mopar) brackets.

I will be putting on my Full Traction front/rear bars as soon as they get here and could post if these are difficult to install or if I see any problems. Here's to hoping for centered axels and no more ESP problems!

[Thanx to David @ Northridge for setting me up with the FT Trackbars as well]

 

I have heard TF had issues with the bushings I believe and FT with the constant re-greasing due to clicking noise, cud be operator error though anyone happy with their track bars??????

 

I recently installed the FT adjustable bars front and rear. Quality components and easy install makes this a great upgrade for those requiring axle re-centering. If you follow WOL's writeup, you will have no issues. I Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

 

The FT lower joints are outstanding. The design of the uppers doesn't allow for free rotation on the bolt as the suspension compresses/extends. When you torque the mounting bolts to 125 ft/lbs it binds the upper mount which is a composite bushing with a steel sleeve. The bolt squeezes the frame mount against the bushing which in turn compresses against the full-width eye of the track bar. If you don't have a liberal (grease the crap out of it!) amount of lithium grease in between all those components it will bind and "pop" or "click" as it moves. Most noticeable off-road where you are slow, low background noise, windows down, suspension flexing, etc. Mine did it front and rear after install. I dropped the upper ends, took them apart, greased the heck out them as I put them back together, and backed the torque off to 110 ft/lbs and the noise went away. We'll see how long the grease keeps them quiet.

 

I installed a zerk fitting in my rear FT track bar and it hasnt made any noise since.
I have no idea why FT doenst include in the first place

I am happy with mine now though!

 

Damn good idea! Did you drill and tap the upper mount tube so the zerk feeds grease in between the tube and the bushing?
