Time I stopped polluting the "Steel" thread with my questions...
I'm in the process of putting together a beef trackbar for my WJ. It will be adjustable and include a narrow body Johnny Joint on the axle end and poly bushing on the vehicle end.
Here's the parts:
Currie Johnny Joint Forged Rod End # CE-9112N-13 - 1 x 14 x 1.6"w with jam nut
JKS Urethane Bushings # 7087R and Sleeve #3618SL
I'll be using 1.25"OD x .188 wall DOM for the trackbar. Instead of welding in a threaded insert, I'm having the end of the tube threaded to accept the JJ.
I still need to pick up the DOM - anyone have a piece (about 4' long). I also need to source a tiny amount of some 1.625 x .120 wall DOM for the JKS Bushings.
The reason for this is my new IRO springs (3"), BPE's, JKS Discos and 5125 Bils awaiting install - then some new shoes so I can get the WJ inspected.
Pics of the progress to follow.
