Default 2nd to 3rd gen track bar upgrade??

what are some places that make a conversion kit, i noticed when i went to put on my new front shocks that my bump stop was hitting the pig on the driver side and my sway bar links are bent to the driver side, the truck dog tracks like SOB to the left, so im planning a massive overhaul of my front end soon,

replace the blown out moog tie rods 7~ months old with new moog ends
Borgeson steering box - stock one is COMPLETELY BLOWN
and a new track bar

so anyone got any input on 3rd gen track bar conversions and were is the place to buy?

Yeah, Top Gunz has the nice one with a bushing on one end, and a heim joint on the other, WITH the bracket, for 349.00....... (for 3.5 to 9 inches of lift....)

Here's one for 190.00..... Still a lot of cash for what it is....
