The job of the track bar is to provide lateral location for your axle so that when you turn a corner your wheels stay located under the vehicle allowing your ride to track straight. Your Mercury Cougar track bar is put under intense stress any time you take a corner making it a failure prone component. If your OEM track bar is damaged or worn out it is a good idea to replace it with a brand new unit. Here at Andy's Auto Sport we have a great selection of Mercury Cougar track bars for you to choose from. Whether you are looking for stock or performance models you are sure to find the perfect Mercury Cougar track bar for your needs in our extensive collection.

If you have modified your truck by adding a lift kit, there is a good chance that your OEM track bar is no longer up to the task. The added stress of big off-road tires can cause the factory track bar to sheer off, and the added height of a lift kit can cause the wrong angles for the original bar. Fortunately many of the top aftermarket companies offer heavy duty Mercury Cougar track bars that are designed for the rigors of lifted trucks. These bars are designed to compensate for extreme lift angles and are built out of burly materials to ensure that they will keep your axle centered even when the going gets rough.

Q: What is a track bar? Why buy one?
A: The track bar is a crucial part of the suspension that locates the axle and prevents it from moving laterally, but still lets the suspension move up and down freely. This is important when it comes to handling dynamics as it keeps the wheels in line and still lets the rest of the suspension do its job. A worn out or damaged track bar can cause major suspension issues from premature tire wear to dangerous handling characteristics. Fortunately there are brand new replacement track bars that can get your ride back into shape. In addition if you have lifted your truck you may require a special track bar or new brackets to achieve the correct geometry. There is a complete selection of adjustable track bars and modified brackets available to accommodate all of your needs.
