Strange RE parts

Slonopotam · Aug 23, 2007

Hi,

I've came across a catalog with some strange Rubicon Express part numbers

RE1667 TRACK BAR, XJ/ZJ ***** HD ***** EXTREME-DUTY
RE1668 TRACK BAR BRACKET, HD XJ/ZJ (USE WITH RE1667)

Official RE site does not list it, does anybody know anything about it ?
Got pictures / description what are these ?

Thank you,
Andrey

No, 5.5" uses 1660, RE site shows 1660, but not 1667/1668.

Here is the whole list for XJ:

RE1600 TRACK BAR, FRONT XJ/MJ/ZJ/TJ

RE1660 TRACK BAR, XJ/ZJ EXTREME-DUTY
RE1665 TRACK BAR BRACKET, HD XJ/ZJ

RE1667 TRACK BAR, XJ/ZJ ***** HD ***** EXTREME-DUTY
RE1668 TRACK BAR BRACKET, HD XJ/ZJ (USE WITH RE1667)

So what is 1667 ?

Its the same thing, just a different number for some reason...

not exactly the same thing

** RE1668 HD Bracket and RE2500 Drop Pitman Arm required for new installations. Customers who already have the RE1665 bracket can re-use their existing bracket but must enlarge the track bar mounting hole to 1/2". **

NEW STRONGER FRONT TRACK BAR! This is a thicker walled version of the RE1660 XJ/ZJ Extreme Duty Front Track Bar. Uses 1/2" mounting hardware at both ends.

The only problem is that 1660 used 1/2" mounting hardware at both ends too.

I am beginning to think it IS the same thing.

The RE 1660 trackbar uses 10mm hardware!

Was this ever confirmed? RE's website is STILL down (been over a week now) so I cant find any more info on it.

Thanks
