Are you talking about the bushing there or the bracket on the axle?

If it's the frame end it's a tie rod end on a factory one.

Bushing on axle end, TRE on frame end.

TREs are threaded for adjustment and to the best of my knowledge there's no adjusting a factory track bar so it is just a ball joint on the frame end.

Edit: read xjmarc's post wrong thought he said axle end for some reason.

Take a pic someone will recognize it and then you'll know what you have and what part to get to replace it.
