lift help!!
i have 2007 unlimited sahara and i just put a 2.5 teraflex budget boost with a 3/4 inch extra spacer up front, and bilstein 5100's all the way around, to really level it out. my question is do i need an adjustable front track bar or do i need the geometry correction brackets for the front control arms or both. I dont do any off roading at all so i want the ride to be as good as possible. any input will help and be greatly appreciated!

Geometry correction brackets remove the "flighty" steering that happens when the Jeep is lifted. If your Jeep steers and handles the way you like, then brackets may not be needed. If you want the steering to return to a stock feel, use the brackets. Brackets also make the Jeep handle nice and they reduce front end dive during braking.
An adjustable track bar centers the front axle. With 2.5 to 3" of lift the axle moves off center by a bit less than half an inch. Sometimes that is enough to make the tire rub on one side more than the other. The track bar is not essential but a lot of folks use it.
