Yeah, I'm about to get the new Carli bar myself. The last bushing only lasted about 500 miles.

For those who have installed the new style Carli trackbar. On the axle end. How do you have the zerk fitting positioned? Up or down?

Got my new Carli track bar installed yesterday. The steering feels tight again.

Also I installed a 90deg zerk fitting and positioned it on the bottom at the axle side heim joint.
