These Artec Industries sway bar brackets are the same driver- and passenger-side brackets used in Artec's popular TJ 8.8 axle swap kit, now offered on their own by request. They locate the factory Jeep TJ sway bar in its OEM position on a Ford 8.8 rear axle, so you keep on-road stability after the swap. Made from 1/4" boxed steel plate and sold as a pair.
Key Features
- Made from 1/4" thick boxed steel plate for strength
- Cut for 3.25" diameter axle tubes on the Ford 8.8 axle
- Locates the sway bar in the OEM position
- For use with the factory TJ sway bar (not an 8.8 sway bar)
- Driver and passenger side — sold as a pair
- May be adapted to other axles with minor modification
Fitment & Compatibility
Designed for a Jeep Wrangler TJ (1997-2006) running a Ford 8.8 rear axle swap. The brackets are cut for the 8.8's 3.25" axle tubes and set the sway bar in the factory location, and they are intended to work with the factory TJ sway bar rather than an 8.8-specific bar. They can be used on other axles with minor modifications. Doing the full swap? See the TJ 8.8 Swap Kit with Truss, and complete the axle brackets with the matching OEM shock mounts and OEM lower control arm brackets.
