thanks though I'm sure rebuild is still the best option then anyway.

I like the heim joint option. It would be nice for it to be adjustable.

I'd love to help you here Atmos, but with the thread being closed and all, I'm afraid I was just a bit too late. Better luck next time.

lol. I'll just rebuild it and see how that works. my buddy got the heim welded on his TJ track bar and loves it.
it looks sick and bomb proof but it's too pricey at the moment.

if you want my opinion. Buy iro's double shear trackbar. it's more money but you won't have to worry about it for a long time. I rebuilt the ends on my adjustable 3 times in 14 months until I got iro's trackbar... Just a thought..
