Default Centering Front Axle When Installing Adjustable Track Bar

Installing a new AdjustableTrack Bar and need a few suggestions for making sure the front axel is dead center once I have the front frame supported.

Will the Track bar help pull the axel back center while adjusting or is there a way to center the axel and then adjust the length of the track bar and intall it?
