I've take the original stock trackbar. Cut the drivers side tie rod off a inch from the ball got some. Gaspipe to fit that size the female end Welded onto the main bar. Shoved a old socket in there 3/4. Welded it inside for strength. Welded the. Adjustable male end on the tie rod end of it and viola will update if it fails but it beats spending 140$

The thing about that is if a track bar breaks, it gets pretty serious pretty fast
