Default Rear Wheels not Right
Hi guys,I was out doing some last minute shopping. When I came out of the store I noticed the left rear tire is sticking out farther than the left rear. Is this a rear track bar thing,or what?

Probably track bar. You could get a relocation bracket or an adjustable track bar.

Thanks guys. It's lifted 2.5 inches. Is it safe to drive in town for a day or two though?

Safe to drive a little. No real issue. Lots of people run it that way indefinitely.

If the rear is out the front probably is too
Adjustable track bar is easy to install

depends if you change your lift... and adjustable track bar will fix almost all scenarios.
