Product Description
Synergy Front Track Bar and Sector Shaft Brace (Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT 2018+)
Synergy MFG's Jeep JL / JLU / JT Front Track Bar and Sector Shaft Brace is designed to better distribute the increased load the frame side track bar bracket encounters on a lifted Jeep and supports the steering box sector shaft from excessive deflection. A track bar bracket or steering box failure is a quick way to end your day. A lift and large tires can easily push these components past their capacity. Reinforce your front frame side track bar bracket and sector shaft with Synergy's Front Track Bar and Sector Shaft Brace.
Kit Includes:
- One (1) track bar/sector shaft brace
- Necessary hardware
- Installation instructions
- Prevents frame side track bar bracket from failing when lifted and running larger tires
- Prevents excessive deflection of the steering box sector shaft- which can result in excessive steering box wear, play or breakage
- Bolt-on fix
- Additional thickness at track bar bolt
- Better distributes the increased load on the factory track bar bracket
- Bolt on application
Notes:
*** This is NOT a replacement track bar bracket. This is a brace to reinforce the stock frame-side front track bar bracket.
**** If your stock track bar bracket is damaged, complete required repairs prior to installing this product
***** No bump stop spacing is required when used in conjunction with the 8875-01 Front Track Bar
****** If using the stock front track bar, a minimum of 2" of bump stop spacing is required
******* If using an aftermarket track bar, the front springs should be removed and the suspension cycled to full bump to determine the bump stop spacing required to prevent the track bar from contacting the sector shaft nut, or any other interference.
******** NOT compatible with JT Gladiator Mojave or Sahara models with the diesel engine. Jeep added a gusset to the coil bucket which interferes with fitment. This gusset must be removed with a grinder in order to clear the 8869-01 brace.
********* If using PSC Big Bore Steering Kit, it is necessary to use the Synergy MFG Sector Shaft Nut (8869-10) and PSC hardware kit (HWK-689-PP)
