Hey guys I’m going to swap a dana 60 from an 05+ superduty and I just had a couple thoughts. With the artec truss, will I be able to use any aftermarket adjustable trackbar for an XJ? Or will I have to custom fab my own? Also with that truss will my iro rock link 3 link long arm work? It doesn’t have heims at the end i’ll attach a picture below. I haven’t installed it yet because i just bought the cherokee and i’m swapping in tons before i’m even able to drive it.
Engine: 4.3L with headers and full 3" exhaust system
Yes, your drag link will be longer, so you will also need a longer track bar if you are going to use it on the highway. Also your upper coil perch will not be as wide as what you will have on the 60. Also you may want to check and see if you have a real 60. Many of the super duties have a Dana 55 which is still a very stout axle

so a normal adjustable one won’t work? and do they sell ones that do work or do i have to make one?
Set the jeep on jack stands at ride height your after put axle under front end and center and set at height and then you can measure the length of needed track bar!

The track bar needs to be the same length as your drag link. Which means that you will need to kind of mock it all up at once. Also, if you draw a line from both points of articulation, they should be parallel.
You can see in this pic, my custom track bar is completely parallel with my drag link
