Default Trac bar lentgh for synergy raised bracket

Could someone tell me the length of their trac bar with the raised bracket? I am running the flip kit with a JKS adjustable trac bar. Just want to get it close so i can get it aligned.

Its already really close if you have had your track bar installed before the bracket, just shorten it down a couple turns and try it out

My only issue is that the drag link isnt long enough. I figured the trac bar needs to be shorter just curious of the lenths others have theirs at with a similar setup.

I am not understanding the issue, lengthen the drag link to match to center your steering wheel

I have extended the drag link out to its max and im still about an inch or so off. I called synergy to make sure i am not losing my mind. But he had said with the raised bracket i need to put the trac bar close to the stock length.

Measure how far off from center your axle is with both wheels on the ground. Disconnect the track bar, measure how much the adjustable end is sticking out from the locking nut. Adjust the track bar for approximately half that distance. Should get you close.

Yes and I agree with that I had to shorten my trac bar down to about stock length when I added the bracket, but my stock drag link reached just fine(although I have repalced the pitman arm end of it with a moog end... maybe they have a longer shank), I still had lots of adjustment... then i went with a drag link flip
