Default Rock Crawler Degree Wedges

Buy these from Rock Crawler or Northridge for $30. It should help. It got my springs of my stock track bar after putting control arms on and moving the axle back. Theres some threads on them.

The axle being moved back causes the spring perches to not line up thus creating an arch effect. you can either get new mounts,cut your old ones and reweld em into place,or get the rear coil wedges from Rock krawler. lots of different ways to attack it.

I had that problem also when I installed my adjustables. I took and cut off the existing spring perches and put the bolt on ones on. Took care of the Bowing problem and the coils hitting the track bar.
