CHECK the hubs by shaking the tires in/out at the top as hard as you can. any movement is bad. hubs are expensive at about $180 each, so don't waste money.

check for play in both ends of the trackbar. if yours wasn't replaced, there's a pretty good chance its worn out.

Are the 1500's a one piece assembly like the 2500?

Definetely check first. I never noticed any wobble, but my bearings went out in my 3/4 axles.

I havent done anything to the trackbar but I had someone look at it tonight and he said that my trackbar was fine from what he could tell, he changed one the other day on his dodge. Yes they are one piece assembly.

Talking to a friend who just replaced his trackbar(if needed), got his from solidsteel.biz. It is adjustable and appears to be a nice setup. Probably part# DAT3029402-4. Said his drifted side to side before.

If the bar seems fine I would go for the allignment to make sure everything is straight.

Don't go bending it up already. My offroad truck has been to Uwharre when my cousin had it and lived iin NC. One day I'd like to see what it is all about. I have great wheein' here so it's hard to go anywheres else.

Have fun!!
