Track bar

I just rebuilt the front end on my 1999 F250 super duty 4 x 4 I replaced the tie rod ends and ball joints took it for an alignment and it needs a track bar. Was just wondering what was a good one to go with I don’t mind spending the money to put a good part on it. The truck is not lifted. It is stock height running 33-12.5-20 tires

Is there a reason you can’t just put new bushings in it? Unless it is damaged I do not know why you would need a whole new one

you don’t need a press to do the bushings?

Also the truck is a 3/99 build date so I need the early 99 part ….. truck has early 99 front suspension parts from what I can tell, ik the brake rotors were but the engine is late 99

You can get a complete moog track bar for a early 99 on rock auto for $45. Can get part numbers and check Amazon and local parts stores to. I'd spend that much before I fooled with changing bushings in stock one.

I wouldn't run moog ball joints and stuff that's a big job to change and expensive to do. But something cheap and easy to change like a track bar I'd give it a go for 40 bucks and 30 minute of time. There is also lot of other brands in there around same price point if you don't want a moog.
