yes you will need an adjustable track bar. You should really have one now.

X 2 Mudallday, at 4.5 inches. If you don't already have an adjustable track bar, you should. I bet if you're running the stocker that your driver's side front wheel sticks out way more than the passenger side. Going that 1 inch more with your BB, you will definitely see your need for an adjustable TB. If you already have an adjustable TB, just adjust it out a little. That what I did when I added my 1.5 inch BB. Went from 4.5 to 6 inches of lift and I'm using the same Rusty's adjustable TB.
