I see people relocating the stock track bar on the front, will this work for the rear as well?

 

Depending what you're trying to do, I recall a bleeping jeep episode where he got a rear trackbar drop(I think?) bracket from rough country...

 

I'm installing my lift. Should be 3.5-4 " and want to re center my axles. It looks like people just drill a new hole.

 

If it's mounted to the axle the same way as the front, it should work in theory. I haven't heard of anyone doing it though.

 

ok. thanks. I just kow that the drop brackets have a rep for breaking. I will upgrade to adj track bars and control arms soon I hope.

 

13:20 he talks about the rear bracket. IDK if they make any sort of adjustable one.

 

Why on Earth would someone weld a disc brake to the hub!?!?!

That's not a weld. I believe that is aluminum that has corroded off the wheel and bonded itself to the hub of the jeep, I've seen it alot. Take a flat head and hammer and chip at it to be sure but I'm 99% sure that's what that is.

 

​​​​​​Interesting, yup you were right. I've never seen or heard of anything like that before, first time for everything. Only the drivers side had it and the passenger side had none whatsoever, there was even a slight gap...

 

Yeah I've seen it a bunch of times in my time as a mechanic. Easy to mistake though because it does in fact look alot like a bead of weld.

 

 

Hmmpph! That's crazy! I thought sure that was a weld.

I hate you.

Just lucky is all. Wheeling and dealing. Turned one fairly used up Thunderbird into a 00 wj via a trade. Turned that wj into a sweet bike, sold bike bought white jeep and another bike, and turned and turned that bike into the blue and green jeeps.

That's cool.... at least you'll have plenty of parts!

 

This is true. Green one's nice but has a siezed engine. Blue one is a 2001 and my white one, a 99 , needs a bit of work. Green is gonna be a parts vehicle for those two. My brown one on the other end has the 4.7
