Any updates since you started this thread?

I am in a holding pattern for now. With all the uncertainty I am not spending until further notice. My project has been placed on hold at work and if we don't start up soon, I see the writing on the wall.

I have a st3 kit on my JL and opted for the brackets, but failed to change my drag link and after looking at this thread now I am wanting to go to adjustable track bars for the quality and strength. The bump steer makes sense and it was something I overlooked when gathering my initial parts. I was worried that after drilling holes for the brackets it would affect the integrity of the stock track bar location but after looking more in depth I don’t think it will be a problem.

While the front track bar makes sense to me because it also impacts the steering, has anyone encountered a rear track bar failure other than the mounting points? My rear axle is centered with the bracket and I do not have any clearance issue so I will keep the rear track bar bracket on.

A good track bar and steering components makes all the difference in the world. I’ve tried and tested several different track bars and by far the best one made is the SS Yeti, no debate IMO. . There was a huge noticeable difference over the Teraflex track bar it replaced. As others have said, it is critical to keep your track bar and drag link in line. I run a 3.5” Teraflex lift on 37’s and it probably dives better and straighter then most factory stock Jeeps on the road.

how do you like the teraflex lift, do you feel its too stiff at all? Jeep looks great btw

Did the Rear bracket and for the money and ease of install it is a no brainer.

Made a huge difference in wandering issue. Drove so much better. I have full yeti system up front with synergy sector shaft brace and this made a bigger impact for me. The toll center change makes a huge difference in handling and the drive. The body roll decreased meaningfully

I feel it is a must do with some brackets being less than $50.

With tools ready it is a 30 minute job.

after I did this I did the rancho bar because it was cost effective and just to get it beefier. And NVH was a huge improvement with the rancho bar. Recommend both for the cost to improvement ratio.

hope this helps.

I've done a Rock Krawler front Track Bar but still need something for the rear.

Recently installed the superlift front track bar brace. Front end is feeling pretty good these days.

Do the rear bracket. You won’t regret it.

I have the Synergy front and rear chassis side track bar reinforcements and the rear axle side relocation bracket sitting in the garage. Hopefully get a chance to install them this weekend. I also have the Synergy rear track bar and SteerSmarts front track bar.

He explains the track bar and drag link relationship pretty well. Also what Roky said.
