[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 436907, member: 18789"] That's not a bad situation to use an adjustable in, since at 1" the steering angle is barely affected. It's mainly that when you get up to 2.5+ inches of lift, the only real way to make the steering not suck is to use a drop pitman arm, minimizing the angle, and then if one wants a track bar, the only way to make it properly match the new lowered drag link is to use a bracket that changes the mounting point so the angles of the track bar and drag link match. Most people just throw away the track bars, and I don't necessarily think that's a bad idea; I did it for years but overall I like having that connection better than not up front. On the rear, I'd toss any of them instantly without thought. The rear truly serves no purpose. My steering is tighter when I have the front on, so there is at least an argument to keep one up there. Whether or not to keep the front simply comes down to preference and opinion. [/QUOTE]
