Default adjustable track bar

Hello y'all. I don't think I've posted before, but maybe once, so please be nice 🙌
From what I've gathered, my track bar is shot, ive never messed with them before and therefore have no opinion on them. I've tried looking for S# on it and visually matching it with google images to find a replacement, but no dice.
I'm currently replacing my old OME lift with a new OME lift, (rear to front in that order, I've got the shocks on and am waiting for ARB to send the leafs) and don't plan on changing it in the future, if that needs to be known as well.
Les Schwab was going to charge me an arm and a leg for an Rancho adjustable, but I think that was a different style than what's currently on my XJ.



I'm open to learning and hearing opinions, thanks 🙏

Shop around. Don't go by what Les Schwab says. They're a major chain that cares about profits. Try some mom and pop shops. Find several that do 4x4s.

Hey hey, that sure looks like it! Thank you for your help. Knowing now the price of a new one, would you happen to know if the bushings on it are replaceable? I'm assuming so, since I found this: https://www.northridge4x4.com/part/m...rubber-bushing
Would that work? I can get a new track bar figured out after I finish my rear suspension, if I can get away with replacing the bushing for now that would benefit me.
