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.

First and foremost would like to say that Core4x4s customer service is top notch and they definitely stand behind their warranty on products! Highly recommend using them for any of your off road needs! It’s rare to find a company now a days that backs their products and they do! Had a few issues with mounts and control arms and they handled it without hesitation! Thank you!

First off, I wish I knew about them sooner. The customer service is top tier. The response time is about 30 min no waiting 1-3 days to get a response. The parts are heavy-duty and look amazing. The packaging is perfect, I can't wait to hit some trails. Thanks Core4x4

Installed the full kit on my XJ. Ride quality is night and day better than what I had before. The articulation on the trail is insane. These guys know what they are doing. Already recommended Core 4x4 to everyone in my club.

I have bought a bunch of sets of arms, track bars and even had custom work done by Core 4x4. Just yesterday, Spence and Cam delivered an awesome cross member they designed and built for me! All of their products have been exceptional! I have personally seen their progression with design changes/updates. They truly take pride in their work and products. Quality control is second to none! They’ve also helped me diagnose issues with different jeeps I’ve had, as well as Dodge/Rams. These guys know their stuff! Really! I trust them whole heartedly and absolutely love their products/quality of work! I’ve referred many people, and will always continue to do so. Keep up the good work Core4x4!

I contacted these guys on a Saturday through email and needed some control arms by the following weekend, Spence got back with me and told me he would make sure the order got shipped out on Monday, they got busy and wasn’t able to ship the package out so he got back with me that evening and upgraded my shipping for free and shipped out the next day, only because he told me he’d make sure I’d have them by the weekend! This company sticks to their word! The customer service from these guys are unmatched and they will have another lifetime customer here!

I don’t write reviews often, but Core 4x4 absolutely earned this one. I recently ordered leaf spring mounts and realized after the fact that I messed up my order. Totally my mistake. Instead of giving me the runaround or pointing at a return policy, Core 4x4 emailed me back and forth, worked through exactly what I was doing with my build, and made sure I ended up with the correct parts. That kind of customer service is rare these days — especially in the off-road world where a lot of companies stop caring once the order is placed. The parts themselves are exactly what you hope for: solid, well-made, confidence-inspiring hardware that looks like it belongs under a vehicle that actually gets used. You can tell these are designed by people who understand suspension geometry and real-world abuse, not just CAD screenshots. Mistakes happen — especially on custom or modified builds — and Core 4x4 handled mine like pros. Fast responses, clear communication, and a genuine effort to help me get it right. If you’re on the fence: don’t be. Core 4x4 is the kind of company you want backing your build — the kind that treats customers like fellow enthusiasts, not order numbers.

Great experience with Core 4x4! I purchased some suspension parts for my dad's 98 Jeep TJ. The products they make are super durable and look even better in person. Attention to detail and overall superior quality. The staff at Core 4x4 is super helpful also, Korby has been great. Updating me on the status of my order and sending me tracking numbers as well. Thank you all at Core 4x4, keep up the amazing work!
