Default adj. trackbar question

I know that the superlift kit comes with a front adj. track bar. When you drop the front end and put in the larger coils do you just install the track bar as is or do you need to put everything back together and put the wheels and tires back on to get measurements or what. just curious

i have already read that write-up but he already had the lift installed and had been driving the jeep for awhile. Im just wondering if to install the adj. trackbar do i need to install the springs and shocks and everything on the front of the jeep. then take a measurement to install my trackbar, or do i just put in the springs than install the track bar and dont have to worry about measuring anything.

You need to install the entire kit first and then go back and do the measurements and instell the track bar after that...also a realignment would be a good thing to do as well.

Install the trackbar as you go then once you get everything all buttoned up you can take your measurments and then go back and remove the one bolt and make the adjustment and put it back on.

No matter which way you choose to do it you will most likely have to undo something and make adjustments.

Exactly - no matter how you do it, you will most likely need to take the adjusting end back off at least once to make a final adjustment. As I mentioned in my write-up, we had to lengthen our track bar by 3/8" to correct the shift caused by a 3" lift. Maybe that'll at least give you a starting point.
