Default Trac Bar Mount Reinforcements

Anyone have any good ideas, good modification pictures or knowledge of aftermarket parts to toughen these areas up.
I'm mostly concerned with the front. I completely tore off the entire front mount at the axle this weekend on some extreme trails. I feel that with the use of a relocation bracket and or an adj. bar, or not, this area needs some major attention.

If you have a lift on your Jeep Currie makes nice axle mounted relocation brackets that have to be welded on and are fairly beefy.

No worries. I don't think they are that expensive either.

EDIT:

The rear one is $55, http://www.currieenterprises.com/ces...t.aspx?id=2881

Front one is $40 http://www.currieenterprises.com/ces...t.aspx?id=2882

Very reasonable!

I have not done any serious wheeling yet but i have heard enough horror stories that I welded some reinforcements on the front and rear brackets. I'll load some pictures tonight.
