My track bar didn't change any angles because I don't think that the mount drops it enough

What track bar do you have.

I was looking at rc also. They say they require a drop pitman arm so I figured that would be enough drop.

But it needs the drop pitman arm because the mount drops the track bar so much... In their head the TB and drop pitman arm drop everything to keep DW or bump steer away But it might drop it enough for you not doing the pitman arm drop

My thoughts exactly. As long as I keep the drag link over the pitman arm.

If u swap out your track bar to the RC one, you maybe able to use the stock pitman arm, and put the drag link on bottom of the arm and still keep the 2 parallel.

Just a warning tho. The RC track bar is a pos in my opinion, I have one and it's ****. Thin wall, small, the Hiem joint they supply for the axle end is tiny and very weak, and the frame side bushing wears quickly.

You can make your stock knuckle double shear with a piece of 2x14 flat stock. Bend it, gusset it, weld it. Drill and hole and you're done.

Hang on. Let me see if I can find something.

This is a horrible drawing but you get the idea. (It'd require that you make it taller and put both links on top of the knuckle.
