[QUOTE="mikeeg02, post: 1376931, member: 24194"] I am comparing the frame side joint, to the joint thats mounted to the axle. The joint mounted at the frame end is a "double shear" type. Both sides of the joint itself are supported by steel. The only force the bolt provides is the "shear strength" where the joint and mount contact. The joint mounted at the axle end is a "single shear" type. Where only one side of the joint is supported. You now rely on the tensile strength of the bolt not to stretch but the shear strength is mostly focused to the fixed side of the joint. I must admit I am surprised to hear that that frame side joint is more expensive. But for me personally to purchase an aftermarket track bar, it would need a "double shear" type joint at both ends. Are you willing to answer my questions about the appearance of the bolts that you have seen that have failed? [/QUOTE]
