Front Track Bar Bracket
Ok so tuesday i was out on the trail and i was going along (in 4lo) and then i realized that my steering felt like it was in 2wd. So im come over the CB and say im gonna stop and check this out. So i got out and i didnt notice anything wrong at first till i went to get back in a noticed the front end moving way to much. I go back and i find where the track bar mount is welded to the frame it snapped in half.
So i got it half assed to get me back to the black top
Has anyone ever heard of this or had it happen to them before? My jeep is a 2007 JKUR with only 65k on it. Im thinking of welding the bracket back to the frame and then welding a Synergy reinforcement bracket to it. What do yall think of that?

I am going to assume Rough Shit = Rough Country. If I am right in my assumption, then I agree 100% haha all their stuff is junk.

My Rough Country lift did the same thing - tore it clean off.
I field welded it it get home, then fully welded it and added the Synergy brace - issue solved. I next replaced that crappy lift with a real one (AEV).
The RC bracket a stupendously stupid idea. RC lifts are really only good for mall crawlers (IMHO).
