How much lift do you have? What are you trying to accomplish by moving the mount?

3" with 35s. So looking for lots of downtravel. The tracbar hits the stock mount.

So your saying the mount is limiting your downtravel not your shocks or short arms?

Just so we're clear. You are talking about the mount on the axle.

You should still look into a ds track bar. You will fix the issue with hitting the axle mount with the relocation bracket but you will still have the factory end on the unibody side and that will still have its limits.
