Clayton Off Road Rear Track Bar Relocation Bracket for 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ and LJ Unlimited with SYE Kit

Is This for You?

• You're running 3.5–4.5" of lift on your TJ with a slip yoke eliminator (SYE) kit and a CV-style rear driveshaft, and the rear track bar angle is misaligned with the rotated pinion angle — this relocation bracket moves the rear track bar mount to a new upper location angled forward, specifically designed to align the stock rear track bar with the pinion angle rotated up by the SYE kit and CV driveshaft. This bracket is designed for SYE builds — it is not a general-purpose lift relocation bracket.
• You want a bolt-on 3/16" CNC laser-cut steel bracket that is fully welded and powder coated black, with Grade 8 hardware included — the bracket is CNC laser-cut from 3/16" steel, fully welded (not just tack welded), powder coated black, and comes with all necessary Grade 8 hardware. Bolt-on installation, no welding required at installation.
• You have a TJ and understand the LJ-specific caveat — and may also need the adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210 depending on your specific build variables — this bracket physically fits the LJ Unlimited, but due to the LJ's longer wheelbase and different rear driveshaft angle, the adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210 is highly recommended for LJ builds. For any TJ or LJ build, depending on actual lift height, transfer case height, SYE style, and driveshaft length and angle, the adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210 may also be required to properly dial in the track bar angle and length.

The Result

• Rear track bar relocation bracket for TJ/LJ builds running 3.5–4.5" of lift with an SYE kit and CV-style rear driveshaft — 3/16" CNC laser-cut steel, fully welded, powder coated black, Grade 8 hardware included. Bolt-on installation.
• New upper track bar location angled forward to align the stock rear track bar with the pinion angle rotated up by the SYE kit. Compatible with the stock TJ/LJ rear track bar.
• LJ builds: adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210 highly recommended due to wheelbase and driveshaft angle differences. For any build, COR-4500210 may be required depending on lift, TC height, SYE style, and driveshaft angle.

The COR-4500500 is Clayton Off Road's rear track bar relocation bracket for the 1997–2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ and LJ Unlimited, designed specifically for builds running 3.5–4.5" of lift with a slip yoke eliminator (SYE) kit and a CV-style rear driveshaft. When an SYE kit is installed, the transfer case output angle changes and the pinion angle is rotated up to match the new driveshaft geometry. This changes the required rear track bar angle relative to the factory mount location. This bracket relocates the rear track bar mount to a new upper position angled forward, aligning the stock rear track bar with the rotated pinion angle. The bracket is CNC laser-cut from 3/16" steel, fully welded, powder coated black, and comes with all necessary Grade 8 hardware. Bolt-on installation — no welding required at installation. This bracket physically fits the LJ Unlimited, but due to the LJ's longer wheelbase and different rear driveshaft angle, the adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210 is highly recommended for LJ builds to properly account for the angle and length difference. For any TJ or LJ build, depending on actual lift height, transfer case height, SYE style, and driveshaft length and angle, the adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210 may also be required to properly dial in the track bar angle and length after installing this bracket.

❌ Not recommended for lifts below 3.5" or above 4.5"

Installation & Fabrication Notes

• No welding required at installation — bolt-on bracket with Grade 8 hardware included.
• This bracket is designed for TJ/LJ builds with an SYE kit and CV-style rear driveshaft installed — install the SYE kit and CV driveshaft before installing this bracket.
• Install the bracket to the factory rear track bar frame mount location using the included Grade 8 hardware.
• Install the stock rear track bar (or COR-4500210 adjustable rear track bar) to the new upper bracket mount location.
• LJ builds: Due to the LJ's longer wheelbase and different rear driveshaft angle, the adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210 is highly recommended to properly account for the angle and length difference after bracket installation.
• All builds: Depending on actual lift height, transfer case height, SYE style, and driveshaft length and angle, the adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210 may be required to properly dial in the track bar angle and length. Verify track bar angle and rear axle centering after installation.
• Torque all hardware to specification at ride height.
• Verify rear axle centering after installation.

Wheel & Tire Fitment

Compatible with standard TJ/LJ wheel and tire combinations at 3.5–4.5" of lift. Rear track bar relocation affects rear axle centering and tire clearance — verify equal clearance on both sides after installation.

Engineering Question: Do you have an SYE kit and CV-style rear driveshaft installed on your TJ or LJ? This bracket is designed specifically for SYE builds — it is not a general-purpose lift relocation bracket. Also confirm your lift height is 3.5–4.5" and identify your SYE style, transfer case height, and rear driveshaft length — depending on these variables, you may also need the adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210. If you have an LJ Unlimited, the adjustable rear track bar COR-4500210 is highly recommended.
