Default Adj. Track Bar & Bracket or just bar???

I was wondering if I could get just the adj. track bar and not the bar bracket combo since I only run 31's?????? Would I have to get the bracket if I went to 33x10.5's??? any input is greatly appreciated.

you dont have to have the bracket with either. its just a great upgrade because it transfers the load of not just your tire, but your whole diff and suspension to both "frame rails" instead of just the drivers side. you have to think, the steering box and track bar are on the same side...thats alot of force on just one frame rail

are you talking drop brkt or reinforce brkt? if your talkin drop then ignor the first.

easiest way to see if you need a drop brkt is to look at your steering and track bar compared to eachother......are they parallell with eachother from mounting point to mounting point....
