Well I have a parts jeep that had a rubicon express 1660 track bar on it with the drop bracket and brace too. I had an iro track bar on mine, but wanted the brace so had to swap the whole deal. The joints were destroyed on the rubicon express track bar so I bought a new bushing and flex joint. I'm supposed to have a 1/2" id joint and I received a 10mm id joint so I have to get it all sorted out, but until then it's trackbarless and parked.

what a freaking disaster, shimmed the tranny up about a 1/2" with out thinking about the very tight clearance i have on my exhaust. basically rammed the end of the down tube where 2.5 to 3" collector starts into the floor and it blew the header collector gaskets to smithereens. so it was extra loud, running hella rich, and running like garbage. so i just spent the last 4 hours cutting apart my down tube apart and re-welding it to fit the new drive line angle.
had to stop before i could re install the modified down tube, so ill have to get my butt up extra early to install it and hope it fits right so i can make it too work.
