Installation Instructions:
1. Make sure you are parked on level ground. Using a breaker bar with a 21mm socket and a second 21mm socket (or 13/16” socket), remove the nut and bolt from your driver side rear lower control arm (The end connected to the axle).
2. Use a 21mm socket and breaker bar, remove the track bar bolt and flag nut.
3. Lower the track bar out of the way, then place your new trackbar bracket over the stock track bar mount.
4. Using the supplied hardware, attach the new bracket to the factory track bar mount. Insert the supplied bolt and washer though the bracket, then through the spacer sleeve where the track bar was originally mounted. Then loosely tighten the nut using a 3⁄4” wrench and 3⁄4” socket.
5. Install the supplied U-bolt, washers and nuts as shown. Using a 3⁄4” deep well socket, loosely tighten the nuts.
6. Install the factory control arm bolt through the new bracket. If the control arm doesn’t line up, you can use a jack under the frame to help align the holes. You also may need to hammer the bolt all the way in. Then loosely tighten the factory nut and bolt .
7. Next, fully tighten and torque all 3 mounting points. Torque the U-bolt to 45ft/lbs, the control arm bolt to 125ft/lbs, and the supplied center bracket bolt to 75ft/lbs.
8. Put the track bar in place in the new bracket. Align it with the hole you think is correct. The more lift you have the higher hole you should go with. Then Insert the factory track bar bolt. You can use a large screwdriver to align the holes. It can also help to have another person push the Jeep body left to right to align the holes.
9. Now check if your axle is centered. Do this by measuring how far each tire sticks out from the fender flare. Move the track bar mount hole as necessary to get your axle centered. The higher the hole you use the more the left wheel will stick out. Note: On my 2017 JKU with just under 2.5” of lift, I used the bottom hole, and it actually over corrected slightly. Before the bracket the axle was further to the right, now with the bracket the axle is slightly further to the left.
10. Once you have determined the correct mount hole, add the stock flag nut and tighten the bolt using a 21mm socket. Torque to 125ft/lbs.
