Divide the difference, and you get 1/2'' the trac bar needs to be moved over to re center the axle. My question is though, which way does it need to move that 1/2''? I would think towards the pass. side since it is the one that is shorter, but Im not real sure. So which way should I drill the hole; 1/2'' toward the drivers side, or towards the pass. side, that is looking from the front.

Hmmm...I just left mine hooked up and the box (top) area, then I looked where at my new hole would be so its all lined up marked it level with the old and drilled a new one. That's what I did. & put in a new trac bar bushing.
And sorry about calling bs on the lift. Lol

Everyone seems to think lifting their rig makes the wheel wells bigger or something, 31's will rub with 20" of lift if the tire is stuffed up in the wheel well. Bumpstoping or trimming is the answer.
