NC heim adjustable track bar

[snipes243]

I'm looking for one of the older adjustable heim track bars. I believe the stonecrusher use to make them. If the heims are no good, that is not a problem.

I’m also looking for track bar. Not sure if I should weld and adjust mine or buy adjustable.

Duff has the option of replacing the adjustable end of their trac bar with a SRE/Heim. But then only one end has a heim the other is still a poly bushing. Which may be good to absorb some road vibrations....

Todd Z here on CB is looking for a trac bar with heims on each end right now.

Serious question. Why do people prefer a trac bar that has a heim joint on both ends?

I don't know. To me it just makes sense to have a heim on both ends, but I have to admit don't really have a valid reason to support it. I have an old Performance Unlimited set up that has heims on both ends and it drives with zero bump steer and tracks like an arrow, doesn't follow the grooves..and of course is still a bit sloppy in the steering wheel, bc its a Bronco.

FWIW its old late 90s tech, 3in skyjacker coils and other hodge podge stuff I put together.

Log story short but, I need the freedom to move on both ends. And ultimately i'm tired of replacing bushings every couple of trips.

Get the BC Broncos track bar and cut the bushing end off. It is the same tube that has a heim threaded into the other end. It comes longer than needed anyways.

I have the Gary Yorston-style trac bar which goes all the way to the steering knuckle and I need a heim on that end because of packaging constraints - a bushing won't fit. I'd prefer a bushing on one end to help with NVH but sometimes we have to make compromises.
