Hi guys. I bought a 8 inch rustys lift kit and this is the trackbar that came with it. I looked at rustys site now and the trac bar they have now has a different bushing connecting to the frame mount. Where can I get a replacement bushing for the frame end? Here it is. Thanks in advance.

At first glance I thought it was a TB mount from Kevins Offraod http://www.kevinsoffroad.com/images/trackbar_conversion/trackbar6.jpg
But after comparing them, it looks more like someone just stoled his idea. The TB certainly isnt his though.

Haha yah definitely not that one. Kind of similar I swear it looks exactly like rustys hd track bar... but its got a heim joint. Maybe it was like their first model of track bar? I have no idea.

What is the problem with the heim joint that was sent?

Call Rusty's and they'll get you the end you want I'm sure.

Yah but it doesnt look like a bushing is small enough to fit in place of the heim.. I guess i will call rustys and see.
