Needed with Mopar 2"? How did it improve?
At the beginning of the video I explain why it is needed and how it improved the lift. Basically, when you lift your jeep, if the track bar isn't extended, adjusted, it will push your axles off to one side. Not much with a 2" lift, but mine was off by 3/4". After centering the axles back, it improved gas mileage, more stable on freeway at high speeds, and a big difference when hitting speed bumps. Don't get me wrong, I really like the Mopar Lift. I added the Rock Krawler Correctional Spring Pads to the front and these new Track Bars to improve the lift. Next I'll be adding the fox steering stabilizer.

You're local to me, I'd like to meet up and see the difference sometime. I have almost the same set up minus the 37's

Too bad I don't have any trips planned to CA otherwise I'd be begging you to help me install a lift kit. I think you have the exact right setup with the Mopar lift, adjustable track bars, and RK pads. Adding the Fox steering stabilizers shouldn't be necessary since the geometry should be correct with the control arms and adjustable track bars correct?

Yeah for sure. Shoot me a private message and we can set something up.

Haha thanks. The Fox Steering Stabilizer isn't necessary. It should help with larger tires and wheel control though. It isn't bad now with the stock one. I heard from other guys on the forum that it does make a difference. Plus I want all 5 shocks to be Fox.

Where did you find a Mopar replacement hitch for $57?
I’ll sell you one for $60+ shipping cost. Should fit in a flat rate priority mail box. I’m getting the LOD shorty rear bumper and tire carrier put on this weekend, which has the hitch integrated into the bumper. So they have to remove my old one.
