Default Track bar or all new bushing

So I'm starting to get the "Death Wobble" I know my track bar bushing are bad, but should I get an adjustable track bar ( I only have a 2.5 bb lift) or all new poly bushings bout the same price either way

You can buy the track bar bushings separate (don't have to get the ENTIRE bushing kit, unless you really need it that is). I bought polyurethane track bar bushings and they only cost me about 10 bucks

OEM track bar is inadequate when you get above a 2" lift.

Death wobble is more common with a lift.
