I am halfway through installing a Teraflex leveling kit on a 2012 Rubicon Unlimited. I finally got one side installed but when I went to replace the sway bar link the stud that is in the sway bar link is too big to fit into the trackbar. Before I do the other side, will keeping the original sway bar links for now until I can get this resolved hurt anything? Has anyone experienced this problem? Need some help. I don't know whether to install the spacers on the other side or take off the spacers I just installed until I can figure out a solution. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

 

Not sure why you are installing the swaybar link into a trackbar? You must mean the swaybar mount on axle? Pics?

 

Sorry, I'm not good with the terminology. The axle end is a bolt. No problem there. It's the other end. It's on the sway bar side. It's not the track bar. Should I remove the spacers that I've installed or leave it for a few days until I can figure out a solution.

 

I had to drill mine out to get it to fit.

 

I noticed you have a Rubicon. The TF swaybar links bolt on directly to the Sport & Sahara models. In order for it to work on the Rubis you would have to enlarge the hole on the Sway bar....

 

You have to remove at least 1 bolt on each link and let it hang. the new front sway bar links are longer. That is the last step hooking up the sway bar links. put both spacers on the springs first then bolt the links on last. I hope this helps

 

I had the axle end loose when I tried to install. Sounds like several people have had to ream out the hole in the sway bar for a rubicon. At least I know that I have the right parts. Just have to ream it out. Thanks for the help. At least I can get this finished tonight. I knew this was the place to go for answers. Thanks again.

 

Yup, only affected on Rubicons....



Not from TF but same procedure......

 

That is a good picture, thanks for that.

 

Finished up yesterday morning and everything went well. Thanks to all for the feedback and the photos. Didn't know about having to ream out the sway bar hole. Glad I asked the question.
