Just a question for you guys that bagged you're trucks. When I raise my truck it pushes the nose over shifting the rear-end side to side. I set my track bar at ride hight but it's not maken a difference any pics or suggestions would be great. It's an adjustable bar to in Stock locations wondering do I need to buy a different frame bracket? I don't drive it because it sits crooked thanks for you in put..

Re: Bagged rear
Porterbuilt stuff but same idea. The longer the bar the better. The bar moves in an arc, so if it's a short bar the more aggressive the movement side to side.

Re: Bagged rear
As mentioned earlier, a track or pan hard bar moves in an arc, so the rearend housing will move relative to the frame through the travel of the suspension - at the extreme limits of the suspension travel the movement will be the greatest.
You can go to a triangulated 4-link rear suspension, or use a Watts Link, wishbone, diagonal or X-brace rear end locaters to minimize this if you plan to do a lot of ride height adjustments during your drives.

Re: Bagged rear
OK yes it moves a ton so I'll look into getting new brackets and a longer bar. Like I said doesn't matter where I set it now it's either hitting the inner on one side or rubbing the fender on the other side. Thanks for the feedback back
