Sitting on a jig with the components propped on boxes is fine but I still don't know how you're gonna make them parallel with ota trackbar and utk steering.

The frame mount of the track bar can go where ever I want it to, I am not using the stock mount.

So I decided on a 3 link, and the offset track bar mount. This is the actual measurements off the jeep (within 1/2") of where the track bar will be in relation to the drag link. The track bar will be about 1" shorter than the drag link, should work well.

This place is getting to be like jeep forum from 10 years ago.....
I don't need anything. Over built beats stranded in the middle of no where.
And whatever your last post is attempting to say, yeah the track bar bracket is just as over built as the steering.

I agree. I'm confused as to why you're going the route you're going.

The 1-ton setups are ubiquitous because they are easy to produce, easy to install and because "1-Ton" is easily salable.
Not because they are a great setup for most users.
They work better on D44's with high steer arms or on WJ knuckles. Less lift helps decrease the drag link angle and decrease the corresponding tie rod roll.
On standard fare D30 with the usual 4+ inches of lift... well, lots of companies are making polyurethane spacers that will bandaid it for a while.
Ruffstuff and that Canadian outfit whose name I cant remember both offer weld-in Y-link spuds that are probably a better option for most lifted rigs. Harder to build, requires a fabbed spud instead of just 4 ends & a reamer - but the result has better drag link angle & no tie rod roll.
