    Re: wh trackbar riser

    Is it sitting too far from the stock bracket? A friend of mine had that problem with his and ended up re-bending it with a huge brake where he works. Might be worth a call to WH, might have been a bad run of them...

      mine didn't look right either. there is a gap between the pass. side of the bracket and the axle housing. I filled it when I welded it on.

            I don't recall mine having a gap here is a pic anyway................on second thought I guess mine did have a gap. 2 years later it doesn't seem to have affected anything one way or the other

                before you install it I would cut it straight across between the top hole and the middle hole like in some of the pics. mine hits the frame

                    Mine hit the frame really hard before I cut it off, and it hit after I cut it off. The stock bumpstop raised up works good. Some day I will have airbumps.

                      does it matter if you have the trac bar riser as you have or....., using the drop track bar setup? thanks.
                      What can I fix next?

                        If you are doing the Tie Rod over you have to use a riser or else the draglink will hit the track bar mounting bolt. This is especially true if you are using the chevy one ton Tie Rod and Drag link ends.

                            I think it more of an "either or" you don't need both. All I can assure you of is that once you get you "High Steer" in place you will see what I am talking about.

                            I do know that if you use both a Trac Bar Riser and a drop bracket your trac bar will be too long.

                            ***IN my earlier post I said your drag link will hit. I meant to say your Tie Rod will hit the lower mounting bolt of you Trac bar.*****
