Drag Link Flip: to do, or not to do?

The benefit of raising the track-bar and flipping the drag link, is the roll center gets restored to a factory designed performance. This equates to more precise handling, less stress on the steering box sector shaft, and an even cycling of the suspension during articulation on the trail, or mall speed bumps:) The axle is not being overly pushed to the passenger side on compression, it remains centered under the vehicle. Once this is completed, you can then take the next step and add a set of Reid High Clearance Knuckles, and move the tierod up another 1.5". This allows you to move the steering Stabilizer above the tierod as well mounting to the raised track bar bracket and gain further clearance, also placing it in a horizontal plane and precise engagement of the steering.

I have this complete setup on my 2012 with AEV 3.5" lift, flip kit, currie steering links, OME Stabilizer and Reid Knuckles, no wobble, vibration or hesitation running 37's (mtr) on a rubicon, steering is precise, handling is exceptional.

Same thing goes for the rear axle, run the raised track bar bracket with factory track bar, The overall performance combination is ideal for vehicle stability performance.
