No, I was able to remove and install my new springs and shocks without touching the track bar.

Re: Rear spring replace need pics

The hardest part is removing the old springs. I had to use my grinder and a chisel to get the upper bolt out. Same with the bottom ones. My truck is from South Dakota so no amount of penetrating oil would help. That being said it wasn't difficult, just a bit time consuming. I replaced my u-bolts and bushings while i had everything apart. That did add a bit of time.
