3rd generation track bar

I am needing another track bar for my 2001 4x4 extended cab truck which I converted over to accept the 3rd generation track bar. Can anyone tell me where the best place to purchase would be? I have an adjustable one on right now and it gave no better service than the non adjustable one before that. Seems like they only last about a year and a half. Thanks for any assistance. Local Dodge dealer wants 271.00 for one.

I got mine on eBay for under $80, and have seen them go for even less since.

Look into the Thuren bar. Its rebuildable and the kit, should you ever need it is around $90.

I thought the 3G track bar kit was the end all fix for the 2nd gen track bar problems! Guess I better re-evaluate my options when the time comes.

Do you have SolidSteel's adjustable track bar right now? If so, you can call them and get new bushings for it if thats whats worn out on yours. Checkout my death wobble post though. I've only got 9-10,000miles on mine, and just experienced some horrible death wobble this evening. I'm gonna check the front end out tomorrow after work, but I'm hopping it isn't the trackbar I put on it.
