For those that followed my last post regarding my perch collar lift (1.5" front & 1" rear) this is what my track bar position currently looks like. According to most track bar relocation kits, they are made for 2-4" lifts, but according to the position of my trac bar in the photo, it looks like I really could use a relocation bracket.

I just received a relocation bracket that I ordered a few days ago to, and I also have an appointment to do my alignment later this afternoon. Do y'all think I need the bracket? And if so, I'm guessing it should be installed before I do my alignment?

Once again, thanks for your input in advance!

The relocation bracket is to make your trac bar as close to horizontal as possible to minimize and equalize axle horizontal deflections during suspension movements, both up and down. You also need an adjustable bar to center your axle on your body. Ford uses the same bar for all models even though suspension lifts are different that cause axle to be slightly offset depending on lift.
