Trac Bar / Brake Steer Bar thing

[Matty]

how neccesary is this thing.  I have some brake steer now, but if i take it off will it get crazy??  i drove around with it unhooked for a bit didnt seem too bad.  i am in the process of cleaning up the front axle and wanted to see if there was an  urgent need for me to keep this crappy bar.

If you get into a situation where you need to stand on the breaks hard, you will change lanes.  If your hands are off the wheel when you stand on the breaks...          I wouldn't want to be in the next lane.

Clean up the front axle with a nice hysteer crossover kit...then you won't have to worry about it.

Very important part with push-pull steering.

AOR4x4.com (now out of business) used ot sell a replacement that had a heim joint in one end.  I suspect someone else might sell one or could be made.  It seems like it might help "free" things up a bit.

You could cut the bar in half, sleeve it with tube, then get insert and heim of proper size for one end and leave stock bushing on the other.

thanks guys.  that doesnt sound like a half bad idea CT.  i think i might wait for hysteer though

I ran mine with the drop draglink and no track bar thing.  Brake steer was there but i delt with it.  People have broken steering arms because they took there's off but i never had a problem.  highsteer fixed that problem.

dude,  use a gas charged shock there,  i have one , so does rocksurfer,  frees up some flex  and  keeps brakesteer down


i am using one from a ranger,  with my mount moved to under the radiator
