Get rid of the track bar

 

[cbjeeper]

Before and after. Working on a Christmas gift for the boy. 1997 xr70. The conversion to CRF plastics wasn't as smooth as I thought it would be. The xr is 1.5in wider at the seat, had to cut and stretch the sub frame. Turned out pretty nice, now just waiting for the graphics.

That looks an awful lot like my Ganesh mill Fagor controls?

Yes, useless. They only added it when Chrysler bought AMC. All of the other CJ's never ran then

Someone smarter than me can get into the science of it, but I always felt like the leaf spring wants to move in more of a straight line up and down when flexing and the track bar makes it move in an arch. Seems to fight each other.

You are correct. The 2 systems technically fight each other. There is enough play in the bushing that it doesn't lock up but you are trying to move against 2 separate planes. For road use it really doesn't matter and the track bar will help with sloppy leaf bushings.

Wifey and I decided to take a relaxing stroll up Hurricane Creek today. Ran into a couple Jeeps that were ahead of us. Showed them what an open/open XJ on street 31s could do.
Good times!

Don't you know you're not supposed to run flex that far! Looks like my dad's handiwork

What will it be running?

Siemens control. It's for some of this new work we have coming into the shop. Not sure what exactly we're going to use it for but they just put it in my area yesterday and I started daydreaming of all the government work I could do with it.

I see your big excavator and raise you a 100 ton overhead crane girder sitting on the truck as it left our shop.

FYI - Girder is just under 10' tall, 3' wide & 160' long. Truck over all 198' bumper to bumper
