{"product_id":"carli-suspension-cs-datb-03-track-bar","title":"Carli Suspension Cs-Datb-03 Track Bar","description":"The track bar is the most important link under the front end of a straight axle, heavy-duty truck. It’s both a suspension and steering component and any deflection in the bar or wear in the bushings are immediately felt by the driver in the form of excessive steering input, floating front end, wandering, and last but certainly not least, the dreaded death wobble. Exacerbate the bar’s susceptibility to the above by lifting the truck and increasing the load while pulling the axle off-center and so completes the recipe for disaster. Enter the Carli Adjustable Track Bar. The goal, a link that deflects less than the stock bar, dampens vibrations without causing the sloppy handling associated with the stock bar, ensure service life far in excess of a factory unit while being rebuildable versus replaceable like the factory bar all while being adjustable to center the axle on leveled vehicles. Many years have seen many iterations but we have landed on a design we feel impervious to future improvement. The frame end of the track bar saw a massive improvement in the DATB generation, as well. Our CUB joint starts with a proven FK Bearing 7\/8 Inch Uniball at its center. Custom molded bushings are pressed on to encapsulate this Uniball then the assembly is pressed into the huge, gusseted frame-end housing of the track bar with a Stainless safety washer and retained with a snap ring. Custom Misalignment spacers center the joint in frame bracket and ensure full fore and after movement of the track bar to be possible without bind or excessive bushing deflection. The axle end, again, weld-in bungs and standard jam-nuts have been used for MANY years. Like the hat bushings, they can be finicky to install as not everyone has the tools to yield the shank of a 7\/8 Inch heim to its 660 Pound Per Feet spec.","brand":"Carli Suspension","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49421529546979,"sku":"CLIDATB03","price":584.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/4410\/7491\/files\/ImageServerAPI_e6a29c4d-8385-48f9-b425-bd92bcf7f53a.jpg?v=1784372706","url":"https:\/\/www.partsvia.com\/products\/carli-suspension-cs-datb-03-track-bar","provider":"PartsVia.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
