XJ/ZJ Double-Shear Adjustable Front Track Bar (2" Stretch)

Upgrade your Jeep Cherokee XJ or Grand Cherokee ZJ with our heavy-duty double-shear adjustable front track bar, designed specifically for front axle stretch applications. This version features the same proven track bar design and components as our standard model, with the frame-side mounting bracket positioned 2" farther forward to accommodate a stretched front axle configuration.

The double-adjustable track bar makes setting your axle position simple, while the heavy-duty double-shear bracket provides a robust mounting solution for lifted and modified Jeep suspensions.

Double-Adjustable Design

Setting your track bar length is simple. The double-adjustable design allows you to fine-tune the track bar to center your axle without unbolting the bar from the vehicle. Simply loosen the adjuster clamps, rotate the adjuster to achieve the desired length, and retighten the clamps.

Constructed from 1.25" solid cold-rolled steel bar, the track bar provides a durable solution for lifted Jeep applications.

• Adjustable Range: 31.75"–33.75" overall track bar length.

Forward-Positioned Double-Shear Bracket

The primary difference from our standard track bar kit is the frame-side mounting bracket, which is positioned 2" farther forward to accommodate front axle stretches.

The bracket is CNC laser cut and precision brake-formed from 1/4" plate steel for strength and durability. It lowers the track bar mounting point by 3/4" to improve track bar geometry and help correct bump steer.

For optimal bump-steer correction, pair this track bar with one of our compatible Iron Rock Off Road steering systems:

• 1/2" Over-the-Knuckle Heim Joint Steering System: Our over-the-knuckle steering configuration, designed to work with the track bar geometry. Designed for unmatched articulation. (5/8" Hardware option also available)

• Hybrid 1/2" Over-the-Knuckle Steering System: An alternative over-the-knuckle steering solution engineered to complement the track bar setup. This kit is tailored for quiet operation.

When combined with one of these steering systems, the track bar and steering linkage geometry are designed to work together for proper bump-steer correction.

Flex Joint Frame-Side Bushing

We include a Flex Joint at the frame-side bracket to accomodate the forward position. The axle-side end uses a polyurethane bushing designed to accommodate suspension articulation without binding. The flex joint offers additional freedom of articulation to further reduce binding concerns and enhance suspension travel as a result. Available suspension travel will still depend on the geometry and limitations of the complete suspension system.
