Well today I went wheeling with a few folks from Houston Jeep People. Lots of nice Jeeps there course an XJ (mine) was the lead vehicle :D. Here are some pics that were taken. As you can see I blew a tire and broke a track bar.

Nice pics. What is the verdict on the track bar?

Back together already. Thanks to the good folks at RC I already had a new TRE for the track bar laying in the back seat.

Keep in mind I did this with a broke track bar, and two JK's behind me bypassed it, both on 35's and one was a rubicon.

How can you drive with a broken track bar?

It wasn't easy. I could turn fine to the left, but almost none at all to the right. When I would turn right the front of the jeep would just move, instead of the tires turning. But I still wheeled it for a while like that :D

It is well known that green XJ's can continue mission with broken parts that would cripple any other color of Jeep. haha
