just wondering what some of yalls thoughts on drop trac bar brackets are. i noticed some of the higher end suspension kits just use an adjustable trac bar with a drop pitman. doesnt cranking the trac bar up to the factory mount get the trac/drag link out of parallel and cause bumpsteer? do they not include a $30 part becuase the drop is a weak link? off topic..picked up another 78 the other day rust free (original weathered paint to prove it no coverups) 351, c6, 205, 35s for $500!

I have a drop track bar bracket on my lift (3" Rancho) and before I installed it, my front axle was off centered to the left/drivers side. Most lift kits say any lift over 3" requires the drop pitman arm.

im just running a lengthened track bar with drop pitman arm and i havent had any problem with bumpsteer. ive had mine lifted for two years now and for the first one it was a daily driver.

I have 10" lift and run an adjustable trak arm, stock pitman, and have no bumpsteer, it's nice to be able to align the trucks trak, and have no dogtracking
