I have a drop pitman arm, does this drop the track bar as well (so I can maintain parallel angles)?

You have to buy the heavy duty bracket to drop the track bar to keep the track and drag link angles parallel.
265302
Yes this will result in the track bar dropping maybe 1"-2". Note: this is why it's recommended to have a 3"+ lift, because without the track bar will contact the front of the differential cover.
265303
No. It's just heavy duty and designed to work with their heavy duty track bar.
265304
yes, it drops the track bar about an inch or two. I also have a Rubicon Express drop pitman arm. With the 4.5" RE lift and track bar, I just turned the heim joint 90 degrees. Angles were just about perfect for me. If you have an aftermarket, thicker front differential cover, you will have to extend your front bump stops. The corner of the bracket interfered with my aluminum diff cover with the suspension bottomed out.

It will drop it some, but without knowing your steering set up and lift, it's hard to say. I have an XJ with a 4" lift and IRO OTK steering, factory pitman arm on a Durango steering box. With this RE trac-bar and bracket, my draglink is pretty much parallel with the trac-bar. For me, it works. I don't see why it wouldn't work for you. If need be, switch back to a factory pitman arm if your angles aren't correct.

Yes. This bracket drops the frame side of the track bar about 1" more than stock. This is a very well built piece. Combined with the RE1670 brace this is a significant upgrade over stock. See this link for pictures of these parts installed on my jeep. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/jeep-cherokee/1313746-made-few-upgrades-my-xj.html

You shouldn't have any trouble using it with the relocation bracket, however because this is adjustable you really shouldn't need the bracket. I used this with a 4" pro-comp lift and no relocation bracket and it worked well. The design of this track bar eliminates the track bar as the source of any death wobble. Any additional wobble will be in control arm bushings or dampener.

The pivot itself is moveable on the track and removeable from the track. You should be fine to use the pivot that comes with this if you intend to keep the circle. You can also get some nuts and bolts and set it up as a pivot instead, so the pivot won't come out of the piece as your cutting.

Hi Sandor. Yes, they do. I have mine on a Jetta Sportwagen which has factory rails that aren't parallel. I can put the cross bar anywhere along the rails. The way it works is you loosen a bolt that clamp the foot to the cross bar. That allows the distance between the feet to change. It's really easy to use and take on and off. I've had other systems before and this is by far the best quality and easiest to use of the group.

I did not read anything about a track system. Mine hangs from just a regular hook and no track system. Donna

Will work fine but I would get a dropped pitman armWithout a drop pitman arm you will have bad bump steerYour 5" kit should have come with a dropped pitman arm?

Needs 3" ceiling clearance. Measure up from the center of the Torsion bar. The track height shouldn't matter as far as I know.

I would not recommend it over the track. I dont think it would secure very well.

yes to both though it is clearly designed for horizontal usage. The arm is rather long, so it bounces a bit, depending on road conditions. you might want to get a shorter arm. or lean it on the dash

I got a 1" transfer case drop kit, but haven't gotten extended sway bar links. One thing you will also need is adjustable track bars as well, otherwise the front axle will pull to the driver's side and the rear will pull to the passenger side. If you want a budget boost, I wouldn't go over 2". Anything more and just buy a full kit with everything.

Don't go by my word, but I put mine in a while ago and didn't install any thing else ( track bar, swaybar, ect) And I have not had any problems. In my opinion it's a minimum change in height so the shocks shouldn't matter. In regards to the sway bar, the bar would be at a slightly different angle and would work the same. The track bar I'm not sure on. But like I said I have had no problems and I have driven over 5k miles

No. It is attached to the sidebars & doesn't move, once you've put it together. However the speed & incline adjustments are on the arms as well as the console.

I have a JK Rubicon with these on front and rear with no issues. You can contact ARB via e-mail and they will answer any questions you have. With the TJ it may be a clearance issue with the track bar.

Yes, bars can be moved (at least on my 2005 Odyssey). There are little marks on the inside of the track indicating the preferred location, but you can put them anywhere along the track. They aren't designed to move easily though. You'll need a few tools (maybe just a phillips screwdriver).

Honestly I don't know the purpose of the angle, but the other mount option is much shorter, so you get two inches of rail grab with this mount. Tighten it down with a ratchet, it doesn't move. I kind of like the lines of the angled mount, but to answer your questions, is worth it, gains rail grab.

Yes I have this unit on mine, works great, and you can stop it if you find an angle that you have problems with to concentrate on......

this does adjust to almost any angle so having a non-straight bar should not matter at all, i can use this on my wifes bike that is has a girls bar at about a 45 deg angle.
