Rough Country Rear Track Bar Bracket for 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK - 1167

Todo muy bien

It is a nice product and came vary fast but came with wrong instructions. The instructions were for a complete different product so that didn't help at all

It was a relatively easy install on my 2007 2 door JK with 2.5" lift. The only issue I ran into was the track bar bolt was going to rub on the coil spring. I am guessing this is related to the fact that I have not replaced the rear control arms yet and there is a slight curve in the coil spring as a result of the tilted axle (I could be wrong). My solution was to jack up the frame so that I had room to slide the track bar into the bracket and insert the bolt from the opposite side before then sliding the whole bracket down onto the axle mount. Doing it this way put the head of the bolt on the coil spring side of the bracket which provided the clearance needed to avoid it rubbing on the coil spring. If you do it this way be sure not to forget to drop the vertical bolt into the bracket that goes thru the new hole you drilled before you put the track bar into the bracket. Once the track bar is into the bracket you cannot put that vertical bolt into the bracket without removing the track bar again. All of the holes lined up really well for me and there was only slight difficulty getting one of the nuts up into the axle mount. I ended up having to use a perfectly flat wrench to slide the nut up into the tube. My wrench with the slight bend in the neck wouldn't allow me to get the correct angle to get the bolt started thru the tube.It was totally worth the effort to install. The bracket centered the rear axle almost perfectly. I was amazed at how much of a difference it made in the handling of the Jeep. It removed the brake dive and eliminated some of the flightiness in the steering. And it seems to have completely removed the ABS ESP issues I was having when I went around curves. Only time will tell if the bracket is as durable as it feels. But, so far I would give it a solid 4 stars. I would feel better about it if it would have also had a U-bolt for a little extra strength like the Teraflex bracket. But, the price was just too good to pass up.

No amount of beating on the bent OEM mount would straiten it up enough to fit this. The bracket is well made and designed to fit an OEM bracket that has not been damaged by neanderthal driving :-)Vendor was very understanding and took the bracket back with no fuss. I ultimately had to cut the OEM bracket off and use a weld on replacement.

Honestly think this design is better than some of the other guys that cost more. Replaced one of the other guys bracket with this one after I bent it. This one seems to be a better design
