Our Jeep Wrangler JL/JT & JK steering stabilizer bracket addresses many common issues.
This is a simple bolt-on 3/16s thick, gold zinc-plated, double sheer bracket. It includes Grade 8 hardware to properly clamp our new CNC laser cut and bent bracket to your factory axle mount. This allows you to raise your factory or aftermarket stabilizer above your tie rod, eliminating the possibility of hitting it on rocks or other obstacles.
One of the main key features of the JL/JK stabilizer bracket is that it doesn’t block the track bar bolt head. You can check and retorque your track bar hardware without removing this bracket or your stabilizer. It also comes with a new Grade 8 track bar bolt (TORUE SPEC 146 FT/LBS) with a flanged nut. So this makes it easier to install this bolt but also makes it less likely for it to loosen up for two reasons.
One, the flange can not spin around without making contact with the axle itself, and since the bolt normally has pressure on it, this makes it a lot less likely that it will loosen up.
Two, this is a top lock nut, which has the top thread section deformed to create two or three locking zones. This will easily start by hand, and then you will want to use a torque wrench and torque to 146 ft/lbs.
VEHICLE-SPECIFIC NOTES :
2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK will allow you to reuse your factory tie rod mount. Simply unbolt your steering stabilizer, bolt our new bracket on your axle, loosen and twist your stock tie rod mount above the tie rod, and tighten and reinstall your stabilizer.
2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL & 2020+ Gladiator will require one hole to be drilled to mount this bracket. And will also require an additional tie rod mount. Part # COR-5209011 is the JL/JT packaged kit, which adds part # COR-5200940.
Please note these brackets are designed to be installed on factory axle bracket mounts and also factory tie rods. Aftermarket tie rods will require proper mounting brackets.
