track bar restricting drop

[johnor]

Hi
at 3" lift the track bar is restricting drop on the front diff ,it is hitting on the diff bracket and the TRE is binding . have a adjustable track bar but it is a strait bar looks like it needs a bend at either end to allow it to drop down. can they be bent or does someone here in oz make one to allow it more travel like the IRO RHD track bar .I emailed IRO about there XJ/ZJ Adjustable Double Shear Track Bar Kit RIGHT HAND DRIVE . but have not heard back and the ebay listing doesn't ship to OZ and pricy with exchange rate at the moment

Wooders Garage in Hornsby do a relocation bracket I believe. Otherwise Iron Rock Offroad do ship to Aus, they will email you a freight quote. Can take a few days sometimes.

Did you contact IRO directly? They are usually pretty good in my experience....

I should also add that I did mod the track bar chassis end by cutting and shutting it. This was done by cutting the bottom out and angling the tie rod hole so at static height the tie rod pin was a 90deg to track bar and welding it back in ( make sure not to Affect track bar angle should be same as drag link) While I had the track bar chassis bracket out I slotted the mounting bolt holes with a round file about 3 to 4mm so the bracket could be pushed forward to stop the coil rubbing. I good luck getting a mount off wooders as I waited months and rang lots and got no where.

What I have done is drilled a new hole about 20mm to the left to center the diff and cut the top of the bracket so the pan hard can go up with out hitting it. It's worked good so far.
