X2.. Causes alot of flex. Although some deflection is normal, the jks unit actually weakened after running it for a few months and the flex induced death wobble. I swapped it out for a teraflex forged track bar and instantly resolved my dw.

What was causing the flex though? The rubber end, the johny end or the track bar itself?

Look closely at the exploded view. The unit uses two Rubber Bushings (D).
D Rubber Bushing Each PN 835770 $25.00

I'm not planning on doing much offroading maybe once or twice a year. I went with the 2.5" for the look. The JK should come factory with the 2.5" lift and 35" tires. So hopefully the JKS last for 2 years for me and then i can switch it out.

Ah I see..



They make it look like a johnny joint but its just rubber in there.

I ordered a Currie track bar.

It has a johnny joint on the axle end and poly on the frame. Guess Ill see how it works.
