Anyone got any good pics of a trianglated front end? Every prob. I've had with my front suspension has center around that darn trac bar. Building another project and have several ideas myself, would just like to see what others have done and how its worked, thanks. One ton...would like to see the front of yours if possible, saw it at Tellico , just didn't pay it much attention..

The most common (and just about the only way) people have got rid of the track bar on XJs is to convert to leaves.

wrong answer.......I've seen it done on a number of XJ's, by triangulating the links you can do away with the trac bar. Heck, teraflex sells a kit for TJ's thats bolt on to do this....now, back to the original question, pics anyone.

Of course with the right triangulation, you could eliminate the track bar, but obtaining the right triangulation on the front of a Cherokee is pretty difficult. If you've seen it so many times, maybe you could explain it to me. Here's some links for ya...

Thanx for the links, I'll post pics when its built. Looks like full hydro-steering will be in order to have it work well enough to fool with doing it.Got my obital valve and piston set up....just have to do some plumbing.
 
I just finished my triangulated front 4 link. Stay tuned for some pics. As soon as I can get everything burned in and completely cycled, I'll post 'em.
