Do I need Adj track bars?
Just put 37s on my 3" Zone lift. The 3" lift did not come with a front adj track bar. It has a bracket for the rear. I was rubbing in the rear with this set up so I installed " inch Teraflex spacers.
Without the spacers the front did not rub on the frame. With the spacers only the front right side rubs on the frame at full lock. Will a front adj track bar fix this? Also prior to spacers Jeep tracked straight. Now it pulls to the right. I'm thinking since once side hits and the other doesn't that my whole front axle is not centered to the frame and that an adj track bar would well...adj the track. On the rear, I have a bracket that drops down the passenger side. How do I measure to see if the rear is centered? From what to what? I'm assuming if I'm not centered I will need an adj track bar for the rear too. Am I thinking through this correctly? Other info on my lift. I have new rear links and the rears are on the front. I have no arms or anything like that. I'm hoping that all I need is adj track bar(s). Your thoughts knowledge and experience are very much appreciated! |
Yep. I'm pretty sure that an Adjustable track bar would help.

I think a track bar will locate the axle properly. Also we need to replace the bushings in your rear sway bar links or get new adjustable ones. Also everytime you lift, it needs to be aligned and the steering wheel adjusted...
Bump to locate the measuring points on where the axle is properly centered! Sorry Rob, 1step foreward, 2 steps back!! |
I like to think of it as 2 forward one back.

Any one else have thoughs?
