So i've had the usual trak bar clunk on my 90 cherokee for awhile. (stock, no lift, no big tires..). I installed a new trak bar from napa. cranked the hell out of all the bolts, still clunked.
mystified until today when i finally traced it to the lower bushing. The bolt is NOT moving in the hole. the hole looks fine. So, did i get a defective trak bar? I tried another bolt as well, same clunk. Should i put in a urethane bushing? should i not worry about it? (it's pretty much only if i jerk the wheel fast or am backing out of a parking spot).
It's a pretty minimal amount of movement, but of course it's fairly loud as it's between the axle and the frame, no damping anywhere.
the thing drives great, tracks well, no trouble over bumps.
