Alright I'll look into that. I've got a new track bar that I need to throw on it...so maybe that will solve the problem.

The mounting hole near where the steering damper mounts? No. I mean i grabbed the track bar by hand and tried to see if there was any play and didnt feel it move but that wont solve much. I do know that the ball-joint type end at the frame mount is pretty much blown out though.

The lower TB mount on the axle. They will get oval shaped if you run around too long with the bolt loose. Attached pic kind of shows the issue, mine was much worse.

Excited for a 4 day weekend. Trying to decide how much I can get accomplished over 4 days. Gotta finish this nursery up or the ol' lady will have my head. I wonder if 4wd.com will have any black friday sales.
