Default Track Bar Troubles

Hey all, new to site somewhat. Ive been a member for about 4 months now but havent posted anything. Just wanted to say thanks to all of those who have made posts that have helped me out recently (custom front bumper, new floor pans, 3x3 rock sliders). I currently have a 95 country edition. 6" lift on 35's. When I originally installed the lift I added the track bar bracket to the axle to relocate the mounting position to make up for the lift. Obviously not enough for 6"'s of lift. After wearing out 2 stock ones I ponied up and got a teraflex adjustable track bar. After three weeks, my ball joint end that attaches to the frame is loose. Same problem I've had with the previous ones I wore out. Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions or has had this issue. Btw I'm a certified mechanic at a jeep dealership. Simple fixes have been ruled out. Everything else is tight, it has been aligned recently and yes I installed the bar correctly. Thanks for your help. Appreciate everyone on this site! p.s. sorry this post is so long. lol.

Get a new mount/bracket. Had to do that to mine. I ate two track bars myself to where it wallowed out the hole.
