Default TeraFlex JK Rear Trackbar Bracket - Frame side

Anybody got this rear track bar bracket from Teraflex? It is the frame side one and not the more common axle side one. As I intend to stay with 2" lift, I do not need an adjustable one.

Do you get them in Aus and do they work with RHD JKUs?

Thanks
Bernard

They solve one problem ( axle offset ) but don't correct the roll centre of the vehicle like an axle end relocation bracket. In other words they are a partial fix, which explains why many suppliers don't use them.

If your hearts set on this type of 'fix', ARB sell their own brand which is as good as any other in this case.... and MUCH easier to get.

Just be careful with the ARB one. One of the bolts is VERY long and can catch on the rear sway bar.

There was one on mine when I got it 2nd hand. Took me a while to find the cause of that clunk in the back, and the sway bar has a notch worn into it from scraping the bolt. The bolt was bent & I was REALLY happy that I had bought the compressor & rattle gun when I took it off! I can't find the pics I took of it now, though.

Thanks Guys,

Looks like the axle side bracket is the better option then.

Cheers
Bernard

That's what I have now. Raises the roll center, which makes the JK more stable when cornering as well. Well, by an inch or so...

The frame side brackets are also known to tear the mount off the chassis. Better off sticking to an axle side relocation bracket
