stock lowers are adjustable. look on back of bracket. I have a six inch lift with stock uppers (i think) and i have mine aligned perfect.

shouldnt need em. save the money and put it in a long arm lift fund...

I bet he meant adjustable track bar. If you did not move the track bar or get an adjustable one then you are shifted over to the drivers side by 3/4". That dose through things off a bit.
