Essential Vehicle Stability

Enhance your Jeep Wrangler TJ or LJ’s handling, stability, and axle alignment with the Cruise Series Rear Track Bar. Designed for 1997-2006 models, this track bar ensures your rear axle remains properly centered, reducing instability, body roll, and rear-end wandering on- and off-road. It’s a must-have upgrade for lifted vehicles, particularly those dealing with steering drift or axle misalignment.

What’s Included in the Kit?

  • Cruise Series Rear Track Bar (CRS-J-TJLJ-RTB1)

Key Features and Benefits

  • Superior Axle Centering – Eliminates rear-end wandering and ensures proper alignment for improved handling and stability.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction – Built from 1.5" OD .313" wall heavy-duty steel tubing, reinforced with high-quality polyurethane bushings for durability and smooth operation.
  • Recommended Pairing – For complete rear suspension control and precise pinion angle adjustment, pair with our Cruise Series Rear Control Arm Set (CRS-J-TJLJ-RS4).

Perfect Fit for Lifted Jeeps

When lifting your TJ or LJ, the axle shifts laterally, impacting alignment and suspension geometry. Our adjustable rear track bar corrects this issue, re-centering the axle for better drivability, reduced tire wear, and improved suspension function.

  • For 0 to 3-inch lifts, this track bar is a direct bolt-in upgrade.
  • For 3+ inch lifts, or vehicles with an SYE, a corrected axle mount is required due to the steeper pinion angle rotation and clearance issues between the bar and the factory mount.

Two-Stage Powder Coating

To ensure maximum durability and corrosion resistance, all track bars undergo a two-stage powder coating process: Zinc primer base coat for superior rust protection. Durable top coat, available in 10 color options, allowing customization to match your Jeep’s look.

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, our Cruise Series components are built with the highest quality materials and craftsmanship, supporting American-made manufacturing standards.

Optional Hardware Upgrade

Designed for easy installation using factory hardware, but for those dealing with rusted or seized bolts, we offer optional Grade 8 hardware kits, available separately for a hassle-free install.

In Conclusion

Upgrading to the Cruise Series Rear Track Bar provides improved handling, axle alignment, and enhanced control for lifted Jeep Wrangler TJ and LJ models. Whether you're battling rear-end wandering, axle misalignment, or off-road instability, this track bar keeps your Jeep planted and performing at its best.

For complete rear suspension tuning, pair it with our Cruise Series Rear Control Arm Set (CRS-J-TJLJ-RS4) and experience a fully optimized ride.

Great company, who worked with me on shipping parts to arrive in time for a show. When I explained my concern they went above and beyond to make it happen. Quality of the parts is top notch.

I have nothing but good things to say about Core 4x4. I have the crawler series on my JKU and we take it all over the place. These parts handle everything we throw at them.

Best control arms I have installed on any of my builds. After running every major manufacturer, Core 4x4 is on par or better than all the high-end companies at a fraction of the cost. Lifetime warranty is the cherry on top.

Great long arm kit with everything else I needed as well! They worked with me to ensure that I was getting an upgraded components kit just like I wanted. Fast shipping with some of the best packaging that I have ever seen. Nothing was scratched or missing and this kit is even more impressive than the videos or website can show. Powder coating looks great with no issues. I would highly recommend CORE 4x4 to anyone looking for a great quality kit.

Recieved warrenty exchanges for my control arms last night couldnt be happier!!! Lets talk about the arms tho! Great quality arms in multiple styles and colors!!! I purchased the teir 3 short arns for my 98 xj. I can say that they setoff nicely so my 35 inch tires do not rub! As long as you can get a photo or video of broken hardware core will take care of you. The body of the arm is bulletproof. However make sure to maintain and grease the joints regularly as with any greaseable joint and they shouldkast forever. I had a few problems arise a year after purchase and after some troubleshooting spence was able to help get me the correct parts to get back on the road. I recommend this setup to any and all jeepers looking to get away from the stock arm setup. Alltogether i am Very happy with the performace of my control arms!!!! Mechanic and bodyman of 12 years and my first choice for quality control arms!!

Ordered a control arm and track bar kit for my WJ from Core 4x4 on Monday 7/28 and received it today, Friday 8/1. Im not a state or two away, im in CT aka the other side of the country. Communication is phenominal, emails were responded too in an hour or less. Parts arrived well packed, not damaged, and are great quality for my needs. There arent many companies left that service customers as well as Core 4x4 and i wont hesitate to check them out again if i need something else. Well done!
