If you are doing a Solid Axle Swap (SAS) on your Bronco, this is a must have. This Track Bar Bracket is designed for the 80-96 Bronco & F150, as a direct bolt on application. For the Bronco/F150, no welding or cutting is required and only one small existing hole needs to simply be drilled out larger.

*It will also fit the same generation F250 2WD, but does require some minor modification.

Our design solves a number of problems, all in one bracket. First, it of course allows for the mounting of a track bar when doing an SAS. Second, it eliminates the need to cut into the front of the engine cross member, which is a bad idea. Third, it provides reinforcement to the frame and cross member of these trucks by incorporating the bracket into the main, middle structure (at the side and bottom) of the engine cross member. Thus strengthening the known weak area that is prone to cracking where the crossmember is riveted to the frame. The rod end/joint mounting hole is reinforced with a 1/4" thick weld washer on both sides. The mount hole is 3/4" with a standard 2-5/8" mounting width to allow for many different joint options.

Comes primed and powder coated BLACK using our 4 stage powder coat process and includes all grade 8 mounting hardware including a 3/4" bolt, washers and nut for mounting the bushing or rod end of your choice.

Optional Track Bar: This is a must have when doing a Dana 44 solid axle swap on your 80-96 Bronco or for lifting or upgrading your 78-79 Bronco to an adjustable track bar. Note that the stock track bar bracket bolt size on the 78-79 trucks is 9/16", which is usually worn/wallowed out. Our kit upgrades that to a 5/8" bolt. So the stock bracket will need to be drilled out to 5/8". Always ensure proper thread engagement of the rod ends in the track bar. For ordering just the track bar without the bracket, go to the track bar product specific page here.

Designed to clear the engine cross-member on 80-96 trucks (using our Track Bar Bracket). It provides adjustable length to work on a range of lift heights and to precisely dial-in the length for proper alignment of the truck. Track bars provided per vehicle & lift are based on eye-eye lengths when using our optional FK rod ends. Track bar lengths provided are the lengths of the bar only, not including rod ends. If you are providing your own rod ends, keep in mind other rod ends may have slightly different lengths which will effect the eye-eye length of the overall track bar. Track bar threads are 7/8"-14tpi LH on the driver/frame side and 7/8"-14 RH on the passenger/axle side. This option includes the Powder coated adjustable track bar only.

Optional FK Rod Ends: Two high quality FK Rod Ends with jam nuts and misalignment spacers. An additional 5/8" grade 8 bolt, washers and lock nut is provided for 78-79 trucks for upgrading the drivers/frame side mount bolt. Rod ends provided for 80-96 trucks are 7/8"-14LH, 2-5/8" ball, 3/4" bore for the driver/frame side and 7/8"-14RH, 1-5/8" ball 3/4" bore for passenger/axle side. Rod ends provided for 78-79 trucks are 7/8"-14LH, 1-5/8" ball, 5/8" bore for the driver/frame side and 7/8"-14RH, 1-5/8" ball 3/4" bore for passenger/axle side.

Optional Axle Side Bolt: A new 3/4" x 4.5" or 5.5" Grade 8 bolt, washers and lock nut can be added as an option if needed for the axle side of the D44 or if your doing your own custom axle side mount.
