Being the tires was that they were used Samper TSL's with broken belts and uneven tread wear. Recipe for disaster on a Jeep.

I was also running about 5 inches of lift with stock upper arms so my caster was way off. After lifting that one the steering was always sloppy, but after the tires went on I couldnt even drive it. I would drive down the road and hit a peanut and it would go into its crazy DW fit ....

I had a Rustys track bar and didnt have any problems with it braking, however I was having DW problems and a few shops recommended replacing the track bar first as it wasnt stout enough. Ended up being the tires.

Rustys stuff is okay, its the shipping thats absolutely rediculous. I considered another lift from them but when they told me how much the shipping was I said thanks but no thanks

from what ive read around online, it was some of the older rustys parts that werent that great. I dont see a need to have a cow when somebody just says a name. the shipping deal is b/c the stuff is so big, theres no way around it

OEM part # 52005739
OEM part # 52005740
MOOG part # ES3095R

Hope this helps!

Well, I finally got around to purchasing this part, received it today and turns out to be the wrong one. I got this one: MOOG part # ES3095R . The part that screws into the track back is a tad bit too small. The one I need is this one:

It has this part#: OEM part # 52005739 and can be viewed here: http://rustysoffroad.com/mm5/merchan..._Code=SUS_TRAC But I can't seem to find a MOOG part # or an alternative. It has to be 22mm. Any help at all would be great! Thanks
