Overview
The TeraFlex HD Forged Adjustable Rear Track Bar, part number TER1764420, is a rear track bar for the 2020 to 2022 Jeep Gladiator JT. It is recommended for 2.5 to 6 inch lifts and bolts into the factory locations or its rear track bar axle bracket, with no cutting or welding.
The rear axle takes large side loads while driving, and those loads increase off road. The forged bar is built to withstand those side loads, which supports handling. A track bar also lets the axle move side to side for alignment and lets the suspension cycle through full travel.
The bar is designed to keep clearance for the exhaust and differential cover once the suspension is lifted. The axle bracket is recommended for lifts of 2.5 inches and up, so check whether your lift calls for it before ordering.

Rear track bar and axle bracket
A rear track bar holds the axle centered under the body, and a lift changes that position. A forged bar with a clamp-style adjustment gives you a way to re-center the axle after a height change, which is a common reason to replace the factory bar on a lifted Gladiator.
The axle bracket matters most when the lift is larger, because the bar’s mounting angle changes as the axle moves. Decide whether you need the bracket by checking your lift height and the bar’s mounting location, then plan the install around that choice.
Check the rear bushings, ends and mounts at each alignment. Worn parts let the axle drift, which shows up as uneven tire wear and a loose feel on the highway. Replace any worn hardware, and recheck the rear alignment after a bar adjustment.
- Decide on the axle bracket based on lift height
- Inspect bushings and mounts at each alignment
- Replace worn hardware before setting the length
