iror adj rear track bar question.

i started to install my new iror adj. rear track bar today when i realized its not obvious which end is connected to the axle and which to frame, unlike on the front track bar. also, same question for rear upper adj. control arms. i'm hoping some of you guy's and ladies can supply me with this info so i don't lose the whole weekend. thanks and have a nice holiday, dave.

On my JKS, since it wasn't obvious, I compared the shape and ended uo installing it with the adjustable end to the lower axle attachment point.

Is it straight or does it have a curve? I have the straight one,,, it just doesnt matter period. If it has a curve then it will. Im guessing the curve is at the top.

Have you taken the original off yet?
Have you mocked up the new one next to the old one?
Chances are that the curve on the new one is shaped like the stock one.

sandman thats the one I should have gotten(TB). I have a straight one from when thats all they had. Almost impossible to get the exhaust routed through without rattles so I have a turndown that I dont want.
