Default Front Trackbar

I installed my JKS front trackbar today! It was easy, just had to re-center my steering wheel. But not a big deal.It made the front end a lot tighter. I ordered it from David at northridge, who by the way is extrememly helpfull and a great person to deal with, I will definatly be ordering from him again.

For all of you that have replaced your front trackbar. Keep tabs on your axle-side bolt, though torqued properly mine backed out twice in two weeks.....I highly suggest blue threadlocker!!! Just a thought.

Had mine on for 7 months. Never backed out. X4, 5, 6 on the Northridge4x4 thing and that it really improves the ride of a 4 inch lift.

what lift do you have? i have a 2.5 coil/shock lift, that added about 3 inches, but still have the stock trackbar. i've been thinking about an adjustable, but wondered if you could feel a difference in the handling.
