adjustable track bar
I have a 3" coil spacer on my truck. And because all that it as far as suspension parts I got, my axle was kicked over to the driver side. I think a new track bar would fix that ( correct me if I'm wrong, if I need something else ) But, I was looking online for track bars and I'm seeing adjustable ones for 4"-6" lifts but nothing for 3". any help?

The above are good choices as I gave them serious consideration. However, I opted for BD Diesel.

Edit: I also contacted Top Gun Customz. About a month ago that had a 3" one in testing. Give them a call now to see where they are with it.

On all adjustables, take note of the joints they use and way it is "adjustable" (i.e., 1 jam nut, 2 jam nuts, etc.).
With your 3" spacer...iirc that isn't a true 3". Spacers thickness is ratioed. Or maybe only certain companies did that. Point being is to get the right length for that Tbar so maybe you can have a trusted alignment shop measure for you the proper length....? (e.g., centered axle)

I had this issue when I got a 3" Skyjacker Suspension lift. I am getting a FabTech 3"-10" lift adjustable track bar. I was also told that I may need to get some drop brackets for my sway bar or some adjustable sway bar links depending on how things measure out with the new track bar.
As I was told, If the sway bar sits parallell to the ground after the lift you are good. If it is at any slant you have to either get the links or drop brackets to get it back to level. Something to think about anyway.

I was always under the impression that doing a lift was to increase ground clearance..... so, dropping parts like the sway bar lower just seemed counter-productive to me. Depending on what your sway bar links look like, leaving it in the stock location, and installing longer links sounds like a much better plan to me.

Holy Crap! That's outrageous. I think I would start exploring thru the parts bins, to see if there wasn't something longer that I could "make work". I know some of our sway bars have ball joint type dealywingers on one end. (yes, that's a technical term) I would be REAL tempted to just get a union, (not UAW) and some threaded rod of the right caliber, and make my own.....
