Default messed up track bar ?

I just got my 3inch zone lift done on the front and was looking at the lower track bars and one of them has shims with adjusting bolts. {passenger side} and the driver side has none. The right side is all the way to the front and the driver side is all the way to the back, is that normal? I also noticed that my upper control arm bushings that are on the axle are shot ! i think thats where my clunking noise is coming from. I just dont know about them lower bars, thanks

I'm confused, you only have one track bar. Can you take a pic of what your talking about?

He Means control arms. Replace the Bushings you dont really know if you need the Spacers until you have it aligned by a Pro, Make sure to request that they perform a "Caster& Camber Sweep" Before they just Set Your Toe& Let Ya Go! GL

Looking for an inexpensive lift but still safe and good,what would be a good way to start.

yea lower control arms not track bar my bad, doing to much at one time...i would of thought that they would have been the same but i guess not all that those bars do is center the axle under the frame right ? and the whole in the frame has about a 1 inch slot, 3 inch lift i would only need to more it forward maybe half way i would think
