That picture is exactly what I needed. I don’t understand why I have two holes.

Mine are not the same. As Mr Blaine pointed out earlier, the rear trackbar uses a larger bolt. When I checked mine the larger bolt in the rear did not fit through the Moog K3147 front bushing. So I'm still looking for the correct rear bushing for the OEM trackbar.I can now confirm the bushings for the rear track bar are the same as the front. If I were gonna replace the rear track bar, I’d just replace the bushings. I ordered a rear track bar and then front bushings and it was the same model number on the existing front bushing and the new rear.
Makes me wonder why mine fits. I learn more and more about my back job Jeep every day. Thanks for the feedback.
I have a rough country adjustable in the front, but with the new bushings and tie rod ends, the only parts that's still RC is the bar itself. I had OEM in the rear and it was replaced with a moog. However, both bars uses the same clevite bushings with the same exact model number. That clevite bushing was also used in my front track bar until I replaced it with the dual element.One item to note is that I have the Old Man Emu tracbar bracket in the rear. The bolt I tested against was the bolt provided by OME, not the factory bolt. So there might be a difference between metric and standard sizing, but I'm sure they are close to the same size because the OME bolt is running through the factory trackbar. But it would not fit through the front bushing.
How loose was the bolt in your front bushing? Maybe they used the rear bushing in front. Remind me again which bars and bushings you were comparing.
I'm not sure the exact conversion but I used the same ratchet for both the front and rear--a 15mm. Both bushing appear tight with minimal slop.
I do not know if any of the bolts in question on my Jeep are OEM.
None of the bolts were torx.Hmm, my front bolt was probably a 15mm but my rear was a 18mm. Factory bolts use a T55(?) Torx bolt. Now I wonder about your bolts.
None of the bolts were torx.
So the Moog rear and the OEM rear used the same bushing. What was the number on that bushing?I have a rough country adjustable in the front, but with the new bushings and tie rod ends, the only parts that's still RC is the bar itself. I had OEM in the rear and it was replaced with a moog. However, both bars uses the same clevite bushings with the same exact model number.

So the Moog rear and the OEM rear used the same bushing. What was the number on that bushing?
Since we have completely overtaken the thread, I'll go keep going. My apologies to the OP. I hope you still got some help out of this thread.
So I looked at the Moog K3147 that I purchased for my front bushing. It has 2 different numbers on the bushing. They are very hard to read, but it looks like the outer ring of rubber is Clevite 86929 the inner ring shows 18929. So both are different than the number on your bushing. So that might not be the bushing number but the part numbers of each ring of Clevite that make the bushing... Or something...
I never did figure out a good replacement for the stock rear bushing. Its still something I need to figure out.Looking for the stock rear bushing also….did you get it figured out?
