Can i use this trac bar on a 3" lift
Well 2 days ago i installed my rough country 3" lift and the lift looks great but my axle is off center about a inch to the drivers side and i was wanting to get it back to center so i can get it aligned right.
So yesterday i decided to redrill my hole for the axle part of my trac bar to center it up, well the axle was center'd now but i kind of egged out the hole while i was drilling it and go figure i have death wobble badly.
So i put the trac bar back into the stock hole and hooray no death wobble but back to step 1 so decided to buy a new trac bar.
I have been doing some research and i want a trac bar that come with a new bracket that let me get rid of the tierod end style trac bar so i will be able to have more flex.
Rough country only show this one for lifts greater then 4" lifts which i can always add a 1" spacer if i really need it but was hoping i can use it with my lift now.

The kit is exactly what i want but just want to see if you guys have any reviews on it or thoughts.

You have a 3" lift this one is for 4"-6". Rough country also sells an adjustable track bar for 3" lift. Rough country does make good products.

I have a RC trackbar its not the new double shear one. I got mine thru a local 4x4 shop but they called RC and asked for the part number for a XJ trackbar for 3" and they gave me one. I would call or do that live help thing on RC's website and they will hook you up.
