Ive got the RC track bar on my jeep and it is garbage! Luckily it came with the jeep but I just rebuilt both ends, still have death wobble! Took it to a local off road shop and the owner looked at it for 2 seconds and said both ends are shot...
Time for something else!

My advice, NEVER buy anything from RC unless you want the cheapest, poorest, and sloppiest of parts. They make cheap stuff. That's the bottom line. Spend the extra money and get something that won't wear down and need to be replaced in just a short amount of time.

i ran it for maybe a month before the bushing was shot, i modified it to take a rod end and had no more problems, but i have since removed it as even the rc rod end seemed to be shitty. I just built my own for dirt cheap.

Took me a few years, and too much money, to learn this lesson. I used to buy because they are local to me, but it didn't take me long to learn that it wasn't worth it. RC is just junk.

I started out with a RC adj front trackbar when I first got my 07 JK. Yes they are extremely poor quality. Bushings were junk within 3 months.
