Canadian tire has them for about $134.00 I believe.

You can also try these folks, www.ontariorv.com. He makes really nice
ones for the CJ's and Wranglers at least that can be serviced with
replaceable ends. I don't know what kind of shipping he does or if he
makes them for a GC, but you aren't far away and you can always ask.

The bushing and ball joint can be replaced. Odds are the balljoint is
fine. If the steel isn't bent why buy another one?
Energy Suspension makes the replacement bushing.
http://energysuspension.com/pages/jeep2.html
IIRC the front trackbar bushing is the same as the rear. Except there
is only one on the front. Check 4wheelparts.com, they would know for
sure what the part number is. Can't find the blister pack mine came in.

I didn't do a writeup on the procedure but basically it's one bolt,
lower the track arm, cut/drill the old rubber out, grease up and slide
a new bushing in, set the bar back up and put the bolt back in.
(helps to have someone to rock the jeep a bit since the hole almost never
lines up properly)

Check your sway bar bushings too.

I missed that, Canadian Tire also has bushings. The ball joints are
part of the whole rod though.

Sure? Mine looks like it might be servicable.
It's got a zerk and all just like other ball joints.
Actually, I hit it with a squirt from the greasegun,
looked like the boot was a bit empty.

http://www.4x4xplor.com/front-track.html
leads me to believe it's possible. Might be a
royal pain though.
