Default Trac bar after lift
I had a 4" Rough Contry lift put on my jeep 2 weeks ago. I was washing out sand from under the jeep after a day of playing on the beach down in Corolla NC and I noticed that my trac bar looked a little cocked. I'm not much of a suspension person. can any one tell me if this doesn't look right? that is a drop pitman.

They all do that, grab the bar , you should be able to rock it back and forth.

What he said. It's just the joint pivoting.

No issues with that. It should rotate with a good twist, now if it moves side to side (left to right) then you may have a bad joint.
