With a 3" lift would I have to do anything with the track bar? I have heard of people redrilling the mounting hole in the bracket but really dont want to do that. Can you buy a different bracket with the hole in the correct position or is an adjustable bar the only option.

Id say just get a new adjustable track bar.

I have a control arm question. I am going from 3.5 inches to 4.5 inches of lift. I have longer fixed lower control arms. I was looking on iron rock off roads site and saw upper control arms as well as lowers good for higher lifts. If i get loner upper and lower control arms is anything else needed? I have a longer track bar, brake lines and shocks as well; including t case drop.
With longer upper arms is anything else needed?

(Especially as I'm thinking that 1 inch is about where I want to be with the new HD leaf packs in the rear. I mean, granted I ever get the damn things installed.)

Thanks, I am going to have to wait until the build is a little further along before I decide if I will actually get the adjustable uppers. Just wanting to see if it was needed. Thanks!
