I am about to install the Iron Rock Offroad Double shear adjustable track bar kit (Beefy!) and I'm wondering if I am going to need an alignment afterwards.
Since I've installed my 3" BDS kit the axle's been off center about an inch to the right. Dog legged.
With the BDS kit there is a relocation bracket for the axle side that moves the stock TB about 3/4".
The IRO kit will center the axle perfectly but it also drops the new track bar on the frame side about 3/4", stock position on the axle; kind of the reverse of the BDS setup really.
So, I'm "reversing" the angles on the track bar vs drag link kind of, and moving the axle over about 3/4",
Besides re-centering the steering wheel via DL adjustment sleeve, will I need an alignment???
I just got new tires and don't want to start them out right.
All other steering components are fine. One of the TRE's boots crapped out but I keep it greased till I get a ZJ one.
