I recently installed a 3" lift on my 1999 xj and want to replace my stock track bar bushing. Any tips on how to get the old bushing out???? Like all the other parts on my XJ krusty rusty fun!!!

Most people end up torching them out. If you have the cash, you can pick up an adjustable track bar for about $120. With your 3" lift, I would reccomend it.

It will press out with a hyd. press. new one is put in with a press also.

Yeah, at 3" of lift, your axle is def pushed over to the drivers side. Highly recommend an adjustable track bar.

Definitely would like to do the adj. track bar. I was getting ready to take it to get a front end alignment after putting on the lift. I have a little shimmy and wiggle that is bugging me and had read on here a lot about track bar bushings being the culprit. But I also heard that a front end alignment should correct that......
The adj. track bar is that something the alignment shop would adjust as well? Should I wait to get front end aligned until I put in adj track bar????

Look at iron rock offroad for the track bar its a little more money but worth it.

I second iron rock off-road. It depends on the shop you go to for the alignment.. some will adjust track bar and some won't. And some of the shops that will, don't know what the Hell they're doing. I prefer to just do it myself

How do you know the proper adjustment for track bar or does it explain it in the install instructions????

Any guidelines to installing track bar? Like where the $&@! Do I adjust it to??? What is right from wrong. Is there a measurement I should shoot for????
