lmfao. . that cracked me up.

Sooo, what's the verdict here? I installed the RC 2.5 kit over the Xmas holiday and have been running it w/o issue. I have yet to hit a trail but have been a little concerned about my rear axle being o/c about 1/4-1/2".

Has anyone had any side effects long term with not addding an aftermarket track bar? I'm thinking of getting an adjustable one just for peace of mind.

i ran my RC 2.5" BB for about 10k miles with offset axles (rear about 1/2") with no side effects.

Do yourself a favor and get an adjustable rear trac-bar, I would suggest one for the front as well.

I just got back from my dealership and the tech guy I check with (because I'm getting my Old Man EMU 2" lift this week) said that the only problems they've seen is failure with the factory rear trac bar bracket. He said to get a rear trac bar support and it would be fine. Now I have to figure exactly what he meant by trac bar reinforcement. He said some kits come with it.
