So I order a metalcloak 3.5 lift and an artec armor kit from my local parts guy. I installed my artec kit today and install the supplied trackbar bracket, which I didn't realize till after I was finished that I had the raised bracket. Did I mess up by installing the raised bracket? My lift comes with an adjustable track bar. But do I need a drag link flip to go with the raised bracket?

Yes you do need a draglink flip or you will have bumpsteer.

OK thanks,. Not what I was wanting g to hear though. Any particular flip kit to get to work with artec bracket and metalcloak lift?

That depends, are looking for a basic kit or trying to seriously upgrade you steering?

The simplest and cheapest is the Mopar RHD draglink and you will have to source out a tapered bushing to instal in the knuckle once you drill out the hole. This is what AEVs kit uses but not worth for you to buy a whole kit unless you can sell the trackbar bracket you don't use.

Or The SteerSmarts DL does not require drilling. Simply bolts right up.

Thanks for the info. I just finished installing the lift gonna drive it tomorrow and she how it feels

outlaw26

Well drove it and yep, tons of bump steer. Has any one used a right-hand drive draglink with a poly tapered bushing?

Yes that's essentially what AEv And Evo Use in their kits a RHD drag link and tapered insert.
