why do people spend extra money on long arms... when they dont even have a proper track bar... that is just dangerous and ill tell you why...
you went from a 4 link, to a wristed radius arm. you lost 2 points of contact (axle to body), now the trac bar is even more important...
even though i wouldnt approve of that on a 4 link system...

i dont know why people double post. but yes, i did read it was a temporary solution. and i still made my reply. if you werent going to drive it, why the ghetto fix? the trac bar keeps the axle centered under the jeep during turns, acceleration and deceleration. like i said, if you werent going to drive it, why even bother?

i was just giving you crap for giving me crap. seriously though, not safe. dont even bother driving it untill you get a proper trac bar on there. unless you want to see a relatively high speed front axle leaving your xj...

like i said it was only gonna be to work and its only one turn the whole way and all 35mph speed limits so iwasnt really worried about that no plans on highway driving or anything like that lol trust me i had a grand cherokee on 33's about a year ago and the upper control arm mount on the body on the passenger side broke off doing about 70mph down the highway....deathwobble would be an understatement haha. anyway point being i wont use any excuse my expression "****** rigged" parts haha
