As I developed a death wobble with this bracket, I ended up going to a new track bar. This bracket will align the front tires better, but I would recommend installing a full track bar instead. I haven't experienced the wobble since I installed the new lengthened track bar without the NIXFACE bracket.
One has a 3 on a zj, which I have. An additional 5" of lift and 31" of wheels

It is well made and made A grade 8 bolt with a locking nut was provided. However, the holes in the bracket were not correct, the bolt was too small when it came from the factory and allowed the sway bar to move around. In order to install this kit, you will need to reuse the old bolt in the original worn hole fortunately, the bolt hole in the bracket is large enough to fit a 1/2" bolt (3/4" head), which meant you would have to drill the hole with a 1/2" bit. It's not the smallest bolt that counts, but that hole is also oversized (bracket). The hole is also drilled a bit high because of interference from the back of the nut. * The last bolt hole is where the sway bar bolts into- A 15/32 drill bit was used to enlarge a hole in the sway bar after finding an odd-sized hole in the bracket. The best bolt fit with a metric head (17mm) but the hole in the bracket had to be enlarged to work with this bolt. The bracket, once it had been assembled, fit nicely. I think it would be better if I built this bracket with the original hole drilled smaller (so stock bolts could be used) and with the smallest hole a little smaller and To secure the sway bar, the bolt hole should be identical to the size of the A quality kit will consist of grade 8 bolts, washers, and lock nuts, as well as an appropriate drill bit should drill be required. While the overall price might be higher, spending money on a quality kit will save you both time and money in the long run.
The handle is better and the death wobble is disappearing. It's time for the wheels to align.
The link will bring your axle back to center, but it will change the geometry of your steering and give you bump steer (death wobble). I didn't believe this would bother me and ended up drilling the hole right next to the original hole and my axle drives like stock now.
I love the fit, the quality, and the light weight. However, the bolts were too small for my application, but that's an easy fix. I'm not sure how it will hold up since I haven't driven it yet.
It would be a five-star product if the hardware was all new and tight fitting. if you pay that much you can go find your own bolt.
It helped with the axle alignment and reduce the death wobble a little.
Provides a much needed centering of my front axle on my 1999 Jeep xj cherokee sport. I had a little over 3" lift in my Jeep, and the bracket centering the axle on my Jeep worked well.
The shipment came really fast, and the construction is solid. Excellent condition, comes with hardware (grade 8). This is a great deal!.
exactly as described, although the metal is thinned to an even greater degree than factory brackets. This won't hold up for long, in my opinion.
