track bar bushing replacement
I was wondering while i'm replacing the bushings on my track bar, do i need to ratchet strap something to take the tension off of the track bar? i have a 3 inch skyjacker lift on my XJ. thanks in advance

No, just have someone turn the wheel for you while you take the bolt out to take the tension off the bolt..I would also drill the new track bar bushing and mount to 7/16" and use a grade 8 bolt, Same thing putting it back in.
