I was wondering if my axel to track bar bushing should wear out in 2 years? That seems fast especially since its a daily driver no off-roading at all. I have a 3 inch lift kit on it. Is there something that could influence that to speed up the wear and tear??

thanks

Did you relocate the trackbar? I believe with a 3 inch lift you are supposed to re-drill the mounting hole on the frame side at a minimum.

yes if you have a lift and didnt either relocate the track bar or install and adjustable one it will definetly wear on it, big tires are a huge factor in trac bar wear also

the kit was on the XJ when i bought it but i did replace the track bar and it is an adjustable one. I was wondering if having worn rear leaf springs would affect it? I know that I need to replace them but just wondered if they would affect the track bar bushing. Thanks
