Default trackbar preferances anyone?

i have searched around for a while and really cant find if there is a preferance of Trackbars or are they all the same? i only have the 2.5 inch procomp lift and i know i am probably going a little overboard but i am considering f & r adjustable track bars and new adj control arms. maybe all 8? I want the adjustability so i can get rid of the "flighty" highway steering and i got a little coin to spend.

any suggestions?

i've run full-traction, teraflex and JKS track bars and they all do the job well.

Default Track Bar

I have a JKS Adjustable track bar and it seems to do the job. No complaints so far and it did help the settle down the highway driving.

front and rear JKS track bars here also. no issues.
also u really only need front lower control arms to fix your "flighty" steering. your caster angle is prob below factory 4.2 spec. yes u can get all 8, but u dont need them to fix the caster.

edit.. well for caster u need EITHER front lowers, or front uppers, but i would get lowers because there easier to adjust, and the stock ones can take a beating down there, and an upgraded set is alot stronger than the stockers.

I have a TF front adjustable trackbar and LCAs. Works fine and steering is great.

If you have a little cash you might consider putting in a track bar brace. JKS has a couple that also relo the steering stabilizer. It gussets where the track bar attaches to the axle and is low cost. Just a thought.
