Default Rear track bar qwestion

I'm going to eventually do a 3.5" RK flex lift and wanted to know if you can get a adjustable rear track bar that mounts to the factory mounts so I don't have to do the relocation bracket ...
Thanks for every one on this forum for all the help and feedback !!!!

I have read that with that much lift (3" and up) you have to relocate the rear track bar mount on the differential side because there are clearance/binding issues if you use the stock mounting points. (with an adjustable TB or the stock one)

It will bind at full droop and eventuallybreak/bend the factory brackets.

Default JKS Adjustable Trackbar

I replaced my rear track bar with a JKS. Half my stock track bar was missing because it was hitting the rear coil (passenger side). I had to go with (JKS) adjustable spring mounts to keep the coil from hitting the new (any) track bar. We took off the relocation bracket that came with the lift on driver side and put a spring mount over there too. I have about 3" of lift and am using the factory mounts.

How about a TF 2.5 BB lift? Do I need to use a relocation bracket for that or can I just get away with an adjustable tb? Thanks
