An adjustable track bar is for centering the axle in the jeep, that is important, but it is different then having hi steer or raising the trackbar mount. To have proper steering you want to make sure your drag link and your track bar are parallel. That way they travel in the same arch as the suspension goes up and down. If they are on a different plane then that causes you to have to steer or counter steer around corners or over bumps to keep the jeep going straight. This scenario can trip out your stability control. If you do the drag link flip, like you did, then you want to buy an axle side track bar bracket to raise the track bar and keep it parallel with the draglink.

That's why I mentioned to throw the old drag link back on. Because if you did and everything was alright, that would immediately tell me you didn't raise the trackbar in addition to the DL flip....

What did the dealer find? It's easy to recommend throwing money at it with no actual experience with your setup.
