Default Track bar install

Question for everyone with adjustable track bars, when putting it in the car, do you just make it the same length as the stock one before install?

It’s going in a 2.5” lift so not sure if needs to be opened up a bit or not.

A 2.5” lift normally fine with stock track bar. It’s all about centring the axle, so if the stock length works set it as that. If not, adjust accordingly.

Yep, start with stock length, then you can measure from the inside of the rim on each side to the top of the spring mounts & see if you need to make any adjustments.
