xj tj swaybar swap

[scorpio_vette]

just wondering if a xj front swaybar is the same length/size as a 97 TJ. i seem to have a hard time finding a used TJ swaybar.

I know rusty's sells the adjustable ones to fit both Jeeps, but that helps you in no way at all. I am pretty sure that they are as I put a TJ one on mine last spring, but its now shot and I need to replace it. Length might be the reason why.... IDK

That would be a Trackbar, not a sway bar.

Good Catch, I guess I have the track bar on my mind cause I just ordered one of them, sorry for all the confusion....

now i still don't have an answer

im gonna say no. they are not the same.

I believe the bar from a XJ is a bit wider then the wrangler , havent measured but looking at my XJ and my friends Wrangler not the same.

i just thought of that possibility, because people (including myself soon) are swapping XJ front axles under the TJ's for the high pinion. so i just assumed that if the axle was the same (bolt in), then the swaybar should be pretty damn close. yes/no???

no, the swaybars are very different. tj may work in an xj but xj will not work in a tj
