bought my track bar on sept 29, installed on the 4th and loved the adjust ability without removing and how stout it is. today i drove to the store and every time i stop or accelerate i hear a slight clunk. i get home being the paranoid ocd person i pull out the torque wrench and verify the torque on every bolt in my front suspension, steering, and wheels. i don't find anything loose so looking for wear marks or indications of movement and find nothing. the jeep totally drives fine, no vibration, no pull, or steering issues. i vigorously shake everything i can and un-weight the axle and find my track bar is clunking on the axle end. i verify my torque again and all the hardware is tight but i can feel some minor play and the noise is definitely coming from the rod end. anyone have a similar experience? im thinking about replacing the rod end with a track bar rubber end if i can find the size and matching thread pitch, not even 9000 miles on the jeep and maybe 1000 on the track bar, i guess ill contact synergy and see how they address this issue since it is listed as non warranty as a normal wear part.
