Anyone have any pictures (so says the guy who hasn't visited the web site yet)
I was noticing the upper link on my track bar is already a mess after less than a year of service. I was gonna build my own with a replacable tie rod end, but if a dual rubber bushing setup works well, I will just cut and weld together one like that and modify the stock upper mount to be double shear and handle the rubber bushing.
Guess I am just too cheap to spend that kind of money on something this simple :shrug:

Ok, so I checked out the pics on their site, and if that mod definately will fix it I will be making my own bracket (probably weld on) and building my own track bar with bushings on both ends. Should have next to nothing in it, assuming I can scrounge my parts piles and come up with everything I need

When I replaced my track bar and tire rod ends last month.
I got a great deal on parts. GREAT DEAL I noticed that the arm that comes from the steering box and attacches to the tire rods had some play in it. I think you could move it between 1/8 1/4 inch. That seems a lot for a steering part

If any of you that have ditched your stock track bar want to do me a favor and cut off the bottom eye (w/ bushings) and a couple of inches of the car and mail it to me (I'll pay shipping) I would appreciate it
