Is the jam nut left hand thread?
Maybe that's why I can't get it off going the normal lefty loosey. ..

So does it turn clockwise to loosen?

.......yes

 

So the jam nut loosens by turning it clockwise if your looking at it standing on the driver's side of the jeep?

These are not left hand thread. Jam nuts are just very tight. Its possible that the original installer used Loc-Tite to prevent the nuts from coming loose. It is also possible that they are rusting or corroding in place. Spray everything with some penetrating oil and give it a shot. If that doesn't work you may need to remove the track bar so you can lock it in a vise and get a better bite on it. If Loc-Tite is involved you may need heat to get it to loosen up.

 

Yeah we tried everything to get it loose including taking it off and clamping in a vice and using a bid ass crescent wrench and it wouldn't budge.
So corroded I think its toast.
May just need to replace it.

Do you have a way of putting heat on it? A lot of guys will use RED loctite to keep the jam nuts from coming loose.

 

Yeah we heated it up with MAPP gas and sucker wouldn't budge.
Crazy how corrosion can weld stuff together
