This kid must be talking about his swaybar cause I seriously doubt he drove 20-30 miles with no track bar on. I broke my trackbar about a week ago on the trail and it took me forever to get it a couple miles back to the trailer on a forest service road. I could not turn left at all and almost wrecked it a couple times just trying to drive it back.

 

so everyone i drove without the trackbar kinda connected, i chained it in place using the steering stabalizer and metal chain, it held till i got to the shop, now i need a serious alignment, and it was the only thing i could do i mean i had to get it to the shop and i didnt go above thirty miles an hour there and im still alive so yes it can be done,

ps there was no bolt holding in the bottom part of the track bar, and i had to drill a hold big enough for the new trackbar

 

Its amazing the risks some people will take so they dont have to be inconvenienced. Glad ya made it ok....

 

Back when I was very very stupid and naive, I actually my cherokee back from Pismo Beach Dunes to Santa Cruz without the trackbar (Rustys one broke and it was over 4th of July weekend so no shops were open). I only got a bad wobble once right in front of my house. I am sooooo lucky I didn't kill myself or others, it was decision I will forever regret.

Since then I religiously search and am on cherokee sites so that I don't do anything like that again and so I can help others avoid stupid mistakes.

 

this is true. they also don't think how their decisions could affect someone else.

 

pay attention ^^^^^^ this is correct

 

Doing what you have to do is buying the correct parts instead of half ***ing something.....looks like you had the money to buy a bumper?

 

You must be mistaking your track bar with your sway bar. Without a trackbar your front axle is going to track allover the road. It is very dangerous to drive without a trackbar at all. NOTE: this excludes triangulated suspensions.

 

mine didnt track all over the road but it could be because i wwent less than thirty miles an hour but idk

 

this thread is going nowhere. driving without a trackbar is stupid and dangerous and are a complete idiot if you choose to risk your life and more importantly someone else life to.

someone should close this thread.

 

If you can't afford the right parts to lift your xj you have no business lifting it all, risking your life and more importantly others around you!

 

Go ahead and take your front right upper control arm off, as well as the lower left. I mean, like, there's already 2 others holding things together...

Do it right, douchebags.

 

are you saying i cant afford the right parts? or are you talking about another guy?

 

were the mods????? this thread needs to be closed. this will not end well. MODS???? echo echo......

 

I think the point has been made here..

Dont drive without a trackbar if you value your life, or be prepared for the consequences when you kill someones child and they get a good attorney.
