Hey, I am new to the forum. I used to have a '95 and wished that I had never sold it. Now I have an '07 JK and I love it. Only thing is, I have a few questions since I bought it from a dealer already lifted (used). Any way to figure out what lift is on here? Thanks.

I'm gonna say watch out for the rear track bar bracket. It may cause you some problems in the future.

The rear track bar bracket sometimes causes too much stress on the factory bracket that it is connected to and works as a lever to break the factory bracket, usually at the welds.

Is there anything I can do to solve this? Or just keep an eye on it and fix when necessary? Thanks.

Removing the bracket all together and investing in a rear adjustable track bar would be the best thing

The best thing that could be done it to replace the bracket and stock track bar with an adjustable track bar. Until then you should inspect it frequently, for cracks and/or bending, at regular intervals and after wheeling trips.

Thanks...learning things already. What is a good adjustable track bar? Sorry so many questions.
