Yeti Track bBar with Mopar 2.5" lift

[DAVECS1]

With my Mopar lift I noticed my axle was shifted 3/4 of an inch to the driver's side. It drove great, but I decided to correct the issue. Man the Yeti track bar is some serious metal. Worked great. I am now at 3 5/8" of tire poke out on each side lol!

I was just looking at those today... I can't decide whether to go Evo Mfg, TeraFlex Alpine IR, or SteerSmart Yeti...

I really like the way the TeraFlex has the threaded-sleeve design and the forged-in backbone ridge for strength. But it's like $90 more than the Evo. And I plan on doing Evo with everything else on the front-end once I swap out my spacers and stock Rubi front springs for Evo 2.5" lift plush-ride springs and Evo Enforcer upper & lower control arms. I'm going to keep the Skyjacker 2.5" extended sway bar end links, and shock extension brackets to keep the factory Rubi Fox shocks. And the Skyjacker 1" rear spring spacer. It's going to be a FrankenLift setup, but only until I can talk Evo into making me a set of 1.5" lift progressive-rate rear springs, I'll keep the stock Rubis and 1" spacers in there.

At the end of the day my rig will not see extreme action, it is a DD. With that said I went with simple stupid. The Yeti bar is just a serious beefy piece of metal with a very robust strait forward adjustment. Took about 15 to get the bar on, and another hour and a half of ocd to adjust the drag link and center the wheel, lol! I think I am going to do the rear track bar also. I did not notice much difference in highway driving. It already tracked pretty strait.

I had the same issue with my Mopar lift. I went with the Synergy track bar installed at the same time I installed the Synergy brace. One of the many things I like about the Synergy bar is the adjuster. It is configured so the axle mount holds the bar at exactly the correct angle so the bend clears everything and the adjuster can be turned by hand with the bar installed and then locked with a beefy pinch bolt. The lack of an obnoxious color is another big plus.

The stock drag link has that sleeve configuration. I have not seen that before. I spent 20 minutes trying to drop the drag link to adjust it, and I could not get it loose. I did not want to take a pickle fork to it as I was not replacing it. The I grabbed the bar to slide under the truck and the sleeve rotated. I was pretty happy to see it was adjusting right in place. I drove around my neighborhood with a 15mm making fine adjustments lol

Exactly! Once I replaced and adjusted the track bar, my steering wheel was off by 10-15 degrees. I was very please to find the exact same adjuster on the drag link and was able to center the steering wheel perfectly with a few adjust/drive cycles.

Figured since I got the front lines up might as well do the back. Did the Rock Krawler bar. Liked the heims on it and it was cost effective. Now we are at 3 1/16 on each side.

Where are you guys measuring to see the difference on the front?

Yeah I would say that's a beefy boy right there
