Prothane 1-1206 Rear Track Arm Bushing Kit - Red

The Prothane 1-1206 is a polyurethane rear track arm bushing kit engineered as a direct replacement for worn factory rubber bushings on the Jeep Wrangler TJ. The track arm — also known as a Panhard rod — is a critical suspension component responsible for keeping your axle laterally aligned with the chassis, minimizing body roll, and maintaining precise handling on and off the road.

Why Upgrade to Polyurethane?

OE track arm bushings are made of rubber, which degrades over time when exposed to heat, road salts, and oils. Prothane's polyurethane compound resists these elements far more effectively, delivering a firmer, more precise connection between the track arm and the frame. The result is reduced lateral axle movement, tighter handling, and improved stability — especially noticeable under heavy loads or during spirited off-road use.

Key Features:

• Manufactured from high-performance polyurethane for superior durability over factory rubber
• Reduces unwanted lateral axle movement and body sway
• Specifically formulated for straight-axle suspension geometry
• Available in red; black version (1-1206-BL) also available
• Red and black versions share identical durometer (hardness) — color is a cosmetic choice
• Includes pre-lube for proper installation and squeak prevention
• Backed by Prothane's lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship
• Made in the USA

For best results, thoroughly grease the bushings with the supplied pre-lube during installation. Note that removal of the factory steel outer sleeve from the track arm is required prior to installation.
