everything maybe fine but it's always going drive better if you fix something you modified.

With the 3.8 I shouldn't need that should I?

Are you sure you don't have that backward? I plan on eventually doing all 8 but I wanted to go ahead and get those because they will correct geometry.

My 2 cents
I have a 2010 with 3.25, JK Unlimited. The kit had only the shocks, springs, rear track bar relocate bracket and 2 sway bar links. These were used in front and the fronts went to the rear.
The driveshafts are fine but then I have not wheeled it and flexed out the suspension so they are fine for my use.
I do have some sway control issues, especially noted when running the 35x12.50 tires. I plan to do some control arms to see if this will help make it better but I am used to it.
The brake lines I used the extender bracket in the rear and replaced the front with extended lines.
Been this way for 3 years and has been running fine.
Stay safe.

its not one or the other its both.
I have never heard of keeping the bracket with an adjustable track bar. If I could eliminate brackets then I would. I have bad experiences with them. Just my .02
