I posted because I was having death wobble
after getting rid of my bds bar and I couldn't figure out why because most of my suspension has very little mileage on it and everything seemed tight and had no play in it.
The only thing that changed was the track bar and maybe a very slight shift in the alignment.
The track bar I have now has a bracket on the frame side that drops it just a tad so I am assuming that is it.

I'm bumping this with another question I dont want to start a new thread.
I want to know the opinions on my angles of my steering and track bar.
I am still getting a little bump steer.
My drag link and track bar are almost perfectly parallel unless I am missing something.
I put a straight edge through each of the bolt holes and it seems pretty dead on.
Just wanted to get some opinions.
Thanks!

You just need to go to a crossover steering setup. Your angles aren't horrible. Just the factory Y setup isn't worth a darn after 4" of lift. You want to have a setup where you have one straight hefty tie rod that goes knuckle to knuckle and the drag link would be from pitman arm to passenger knuckle.
