Default front axle off center after lift

I just installed a 2 inch skyjacker lift, just coils and shocks, and the front axle is now off center towards the driver side. I've looked around the site and it sounds like the track bar is the problem? I cant afford an adjustable one, so my question is would a track bar relocation bracket fix this problem?

If the relocation bracket is for the same amount of lift that you have it should work.

If you can weld, just remove the track bar and weld in a piece of bar stock. Its easy and cheap. Measure carefully first, then remove the track bar. Cut it and weld in enough bar stock to get centered. I did my 2500 this way and it worked great.
