Default Which rear track bar bracket for correcting "roll center"

So I did the EVO drag link flip kit which I "think" changed my roll center on the front axle. Should I do the EVO rear so the rear matches to improve handling? Seems like a cheap enough mod and now that I have improved my ride with the flip kit and AEV brackets, I can't stop my quest to improve ride/handling. The TeraFlex looks like a good product too.

To help improve my ride quality, I'm using TF's HD rear t-bar bracket and Full Tractions HD rear sway bar. Both make a very noticeable improvement. For the TF bracket, I use the middle setting for my 3.25" lift. Swaybar I run on stiffest setting for daily driving, softest for offroad.

Thanks for the reply. I didn't know they made an adjustable sway bar. I will check into that as well

yeah they're $189.00 through Northridge and work great, gets rid of the understeer and reduces your body roll. Three different settings from firm to more flex. I'm always surprised there aren't more people using these

It will work great for what you are trying to achieve.

Currently running the evo. The tf is a very nice & stout setup. I ran in the top hole to get it as flat as possible. I have ex mods though. FT swaybar is a nice addition, depending on mods. Great choice if you're running with a lot of extra weight.
