Default DS track bar bracket

I recently got a JKS double shear track bar and I need a bracket. I was wondering if anyone knows a company that has a bracket or knows of a company that sells a bracket that fits a bushing that it about 1.75" wide?

They don't have anything for the frame side bracket.

Not to doubt you, but I've looked and I don't even see that JKS makes a DS TB for the XJ. I have the IRO DS, they may sell the bracket seperate, not sure if they do or what the dimensions are. If I remember I'll take a look when I get home.

I've also looked at Rubicon Express and Rustys, they both sell the bracket seperate but I don't see any dimensions listed. Clayton has one too, but they list a 2 1/2" opening.

Or...(3rd edit!!) if the TB takes 1 1/4" threads (I think that's what their JKU DS TB takes??), maybe thread a larger joint to fit many aftermarket brackets. Like this... http://currieenterprises.reachlocal....id=45966609102
Maybe? Don't know, just throwing ideas out there till someone that knows a lot more than me comes in to help.

Well I traded another member on here for the track bar, so I'm taking others word. Would there be any harm of using washers on the bolt that goes through the bushing so it fits right? Mine looks to be the same as this one, but I don't have a Johnny joint, both ends have the red bushings in them.

Nevermind, after contacting JKS and with the help of the tech it is a WJ track bar. If anyone needs it let me know, other wise I'm SOL.
