Tips for installing 3rd gen track bar kit and track bar?
I have a 3rd gen track bar and the mounting kit to put on my 95. Just wondering if anyone has done this and if there are any special tips or tricks they used when installing it. My concern is keeping the axle centered when the old one is removed and once i get the 3rd gen installed do i need to get the truck aligned? Thanks for the help.

The axle shouldn't shift much when you take off the TB. Just use a rachet strap to center it back up. Which one did you get and is it an adjustable TB? Alignment would be a good idea. I had to reem out some of the holes to get my bracket to fit.

Justg a regular stock 3rd gen trackbar, figured there is no lift on the truck that a non adjustable would be just fine. Thanks for the tips. Are the ratchet straps a must because i dont have any. If i do need to get some, are we talking like the small straps or the big 4" straps? Thanks

If no straps avaliable, and the holes dont lign up have some one turn the steering wheel, that will cause the body to shift over the axel allowing you to get the bolts in, any 1.5 -2inch wide ratching strap will work if you have one
