Donny I took the track bar off my YJ both front and rear a long time ago. To
me I never noticed either one missing. I have an 8.8 installed and I am SOA.
You will need some type of anti-wrap bar to control the axle wrap in the
rear. My idea of a ladder bar like the drag racers and would not allow flex.
Several places (MORE, Skyjacker and others) sell anti-wrap bars. You could
also make your own.
