Making a custom Bullet Proof Track Bar is as easy as following these short easy steps as illustrated below. Design your creation carefully and as accurately as you possibly can, and we will build as closely to your desires as possible.

To measure the track bar, measure from the center of the upper track bar bolt to the center of the lower track bar bolt. Not all vehicles have track bar, and those do not need this feature. For a track bar equipped vehicle not having a track bar present, and with the wheels centered straight ahead, measure the track bar mounts from hole to hole, at the center of each bolt. Insure that the front end side to side alignment is correct, so that accurate measurements can be achieved. For an illustration on this simple procedure, LOOK HERE .
We find it best to design our steering with as much of the threads engaged for both strength purposes, as well as allowing for maximum adjustment in case the tie rod gets bent in an off road situation, where the ends can be adjusted outwards to get back on the trail again. So, make the necessary compensations for potential errors (too long, too short) when providing your exact measurements upon ordering.

HOW TO MAKE A CUSTOM BEND TEMPLATE (for tie, drag & track bars)
...while bending tubing is the last resort, sometimes it is necessary to fit a particularly unique application. Keep bends to a minimum and as close to the rod end as possible to minimize lateral adverse pressure on the rod end as well as leverage force on the bend in the tubing. Utilizing larger tubing options and upgraded rod end strengths is recommended for maximum performance and safety...
1. Bend a piece of brake line to form the exact shape and length desired 2. Keep the number of bends to a minimum and as gentle as possible. 3. Then take a piece of electrical conduit 1" dia. and re-create that form so it won't be deformed in shipment 4. Either weld or epoxy washers on the end to simulate the eyelets. This is not necessary but it helps 5. Carefully pack and send in your creation and we will take it from there. 6. Inform us of the exactness needed in re-creating this shape. There are mechanical limitations of the bender as well as physical limitations of the tubing being used, so the end product may differ from the template provided. 7. The customer is responsible for all engineering and strength considerations of their creation.

These special custom bends are made with a gentle radius with no kinks, dents, crimps or abnormalities which otherwise greatly reduce overall tubing strength. Maximum strength is retained wherever possible in all bends within relationship to the template provided by the customer.
