Track Bar Length
I just got an IRO adjustable TB. Does anyone know the approximate length it will need to be for 2.5" of lift? TIA

you will have to do the measurements yourself, they'll all get different lengths.
with the track bar removed, have someone inside turning the steering wheel until the jeep is centered above the axle. hold the wheel there while you measure each side from frame to outter tire. match them up on both sides, then adjust your track bar till it fits.
throw the bolts in it, then they can let go of the steering wheel.
slight back and forth on the wheel will help get the bolts to go in.
don't forget to crank the lock nut real tight.
