Shop says i need to replace track bar and draglink to pass inspection. does this make sense? I allready have an adj track bar i was gonna put on anyway but they said the draglink is done.

 

Do you have a lift kit on your Jeep? Its possible that the geometry/angles are incorrect if your using the stock trackbar without a trackbar relocation bracket

Otherwise i dont see how the trackbar would need to be replaced unless somehow the bushing were shot to the point thats its dangerous
As for the draglink, did they state if it was the tie rods on the ends? if so did they mention which one? Thats the only reason i would think it would need to be replaced unless it was somehow bent

 

3in lift and installed track bar relocation brackets front and rear because the stock ones ripped off wheeling. i allready have the adj track bar just need to install it. I think he said the draglink was bent. Should i get a draglink flip kit?

 

From what i've read draglink flip kits are usually for 4"+ of lift. You shouldn't need one with a 3" lift kit.
Did your lift kit come with a drop pitman arm? If not, the angle of your draglink and trackbar may not be pararell to each other (which they should be)
Usually with an adjustable trackbar, you would remove the trackbar bracket and keep the stock pitman arm to keep everything angled correctly

 

whats a good drag link? will any drag link work with the jks front track bar relo. bracket? ive been looking around and some drag links look like you have to use a there bracket.

 

Move to Arkansas.

We don't have inspections.

 

as folks always say, you should post up some pics. i didnt know you could bend the draglink!

 

On all jks the draglink looks bent, just more so on lifted jks. That inspector is a dufus.Hell, mine still looks bent with a flipkit.

 

stock



flipped

I think they come with a bend.
