anyone interested in some adjustable tracbars?

[newmexrunner]

I'm going to fab up an adjustable tracbar when i put my 8 wraps on and was curious if anyone would be interested in me making some extra while I'm at it.

I'm gonna make them out of 1.25 DOM tubing with right and left handed rod ends with jam nuts so it'll be adjustable with out having to take them off the vehicle.
Let me know if any of you are interested in some!

Interested. I was just about to buy one from SS. How soon do you think these will be done?

you do know that Toytec lifts already sells them?
save yourself the headache lol

*NEW* Adjustable DOM Panhard Bar - Toytec Lifts: Toyota Lift Kits: FJ Cruiser Lift Kits, Tacoma Lift Kits, Tundra Lift Kits, 4 Runner Lift Kits, Sequoia Lift Kits, Toyota Truck Lift Kits

there easy to make and i could make them and sell them for about 140 a piece. toytec is ripping people off with theres.

and if i get some people interested i'll order the materials this week and have them done and ready to ship within a few days after i get the materials.

ok, I am new to this. What is the reason for this item? I am planning on an OME lift in the rear, so I may be interested.

 

[1bad4r]

I'm interested..I wonder how ridiculous shipping would be for something like that

 

[newmexrunner]

once i get some made i'll go down to the ups office and see about shipping costs. i doubt it would cost too much

and the adjustable tracbar is to keep the rear axle center after a lift is installed.

how does everyone feel about $140 per tracbar? if i can sell enough of these i might start making stronger and adjustable rear control arms as well

If you can do 120 sign me up

If you can do 120 sign me up

i think i could do 130 each. i'll post something when i get everything ordered. but first, so i get enough supplies ordered, who wants one for sure?

 

[1bad4r]

I'm pretty sure I'm down as long as they turn out good

 

[Full_Throttle]

put me down for one.

 

[newmexrunner]

alright well i'll try to get the material for a few ordered as soon as my pay check comes in. i'll pm those of you who said your interested when there done

i'm in if you can keep it under $150 flat to my door, this seems doable as toytech can deliver to mine for $20.32 , pics of the first piece please before funds are exchanged ;-)

Im in if you can do the 150$ to the door as well if the quality is good...I was just trolling yesterday for one on SS and TT... I understand it does help track your axle better, but quick question if im not mistaken does it also help unlock a little more axle articulation/flex?

 

[newmexrunner]

when i start i'm gonna make 3 at first. one for me to test and make sure it performs well then two for two people that are first in line. after i get those out i'll order more materials and get started on making more.

it will probably be at least a month before there ready. i know said a couple weeks but i'm in the middle of moving and the reality of that cost is sinking in (because my wife kinda made them more apparent haha). i'll post up a thread of the fabrication and some action shots of it in use.

i dont think they help with flex. i look on toytec and sonoran steel and neither of them say anything about flex, but i will test it out to make my own conclusions on that issue.

if i can keep the sale price at 130 getting it to your door for 150 or close to it seems very doable as long as your ok with ground shipping. faster shipping will of course cost more.

^ It is only for re-centering your axle after you lift. No more flex is gained, just puts it back to a more stock stance.

 

[sn0wrunner]

their there they're

 

[PatchTrash]

In regards to articulation and flex...this is quoted from SS' website on the trac/pan bars:

"It re-centers the axle, lining everything up again to prevent breakage and unlocks a large amount of rear articulation"

Which then shortly after mentions the stock bushings limit movement...the bushings have nothing to do with centering your axle, only the threaded shaft/nut for horizontal adjustments, they could only be useful for the up and down movement or whatever from my understanding is aka articulation...

That is why I asked, figured maybe some1 would have one installed already and could shed some light on it...Bc now I'm confused...Is that just saying articulation in the fact you now have the ability to re-track your axle, or from how I took it as it unlocks more vertical movement, flex, articulation, etc.....

Didnt mean to hijack btw, apologies just was trying to see if its a bigger priority then other things as when I measured my axle is dead center with my 891s and stock tracbar...


But anyways man cant wait to see your finished product! Keep us posted and good luck with the move! Im in the middle of the same process...
