also, when using the stock track bar on a lifted Jeep (i do plan on getting an adjustable in the near future) which way does it push the axle?

hmmm, my Jeep might be done before yours if you don't finish on sunday, and we haven't even started yet.

if that's the case, that is good because my track bar mount on my axle now is bent pushing the axle to the passenger side. so lifting it could actually correct it, lol.

Though it was right because of the offset ball joints?
Headed to bed. Gotta be at work by 7:30 and then babysitting at 2. Need to replace my transmission mount at some point too. Anyone know if i can use my bottle jack to hold the trans up while i take the crossmember out?

well my dad had them use the offset balljoints so it would line up right. if it was up to me I would've just gotten another axle. oh well, my dad's wasted money.
but the axle is off to the side because the track bar mount is bent. (or so tim said it was)
