You can go one size up with that TRE and ream the hole a bit. That will take you to 1 ton truck size TRE. Unlike XJs and ZJs, this extension bracket is not bolt on for TJs. Unfortunately, factory bracket is welded on the frame. Now there is nothing stopping you to cut it off and put a bolt on one.

Ok, did remember seeing this a long time ago. Look at bottom of page 2 on this: http://www.aev-conversions.com/isheets/AEV-Nth_TJ_Front_Trackbar_Kit_Instructions.pdf

This bracket is sold by AEV as they bought North Degree (I think thats what they were called). It basically is the closest you can get to a bolt on design for a TJ. Hope this helps.
