I replaced my track bar about a year ago and now the frame end is bad again. Last time I just bought a whole new track bar but now I want to just get the frame end to save some money. Where can I get one for a good price??

what track bar do you have? Since I had a cRustys TB, it came with a stock TRE and I upgraded to the HD TB Frame mount and end with rubber bushing to allow more droop.

you can't change the end of a stock trac bar....

time to step up to a HD aftermarket.

I used my Currie hd adj. trac bar with a budget boost before I went 4". It should be o.k.

With Rusty's you need at least a three inch lift. I called them personally to find out...

If it's only a two inch lift then a stock track bar would be fine. It's odd that after one year it's bad. When I replaced my track bar I found that the castle nut was short and didn't lock down the bar. Replaced with a "full size" castle nut and it locked down solid.
