When you lift it 4.5" and leave the track bar stock it moves the front axle to the drivers side and will give you horrible wobble. But also you can get a lower track bar mount, but with that your supposed to have it parallel with the drag link making a drop pitman arm necessary. So i would just get a new track bar, and no i wouldn't suggest leaving it stock.

Ok so definitely get a new track bar lol. And I guess you answered another one of my questions, I don't need a new drop pitman arm with a 4.5 inch lift? Thanks

And thanks to everyone who has been posting pics, all awesome XJs

Hey so I just read the instructions to installing the zone 4.5 inch lift, and I actually says to redrill the track bar mount hole, and tells ya how to do it. So I guess I'll be good without the new trackbar
