I need help with centering my rear axle

[fiend]

So I installed Evo 3 enforcer and put the rear track bar bracket in. I havnt welded it in yet. My axle is off and shifted to the drivers side. Can someone help me or show me a write up on how to center the rear axle with the Evo track bar bracket?

use a ratchet strap to pull the axle to center when the jeep is sitting on its wheels. Install your trackbar and then mark where the EVO bracket would sit on the axle. Weld it there.

For the artec weldnon you cut the entire stock bracket off and smooth to bare metal. Then it indexes into axle and burn it on. Bracket was $50. Then pay a welder for 30 mins time.

Awesome! Thank you!

Awww yes thank you! That’s what I’ve been asking here. That makes sense now. Thanks a bunch! [emoji106]

Why do you need a weld on bracket ? Use the one included in the kit.

Oh no , it’s not that small. It’s almost 1 1/2 off. It’s bad

1 1/2” off center with the EVO bracket you pictured installed?

I don’t need anything, but Evo says that it’s highly recommended to weld it!

Yup! So what I’m thinking is since Evo says to weld it. And I havnt welded it yet. It has moved and shifted my axle over. The design of the bracket just won’t work by just bolting it up. That’s my thought anyway

And I am using the one in the kit. It’s the one that comes with the Evo enforcer lift.

1.5 inches is a lot, but nothing the adjustable track bar can’t handle. First make sure you installed Evo’s bracket how it should be. If so, just buy an adjustable track bar. I bought a Teraflex for my front track bar and it has plenty of adjustment, I imagine the rear does too.

I was being a fussy when I did my axles and they was out of center by around a 1/2”. I bought a set of Synergy adjustable trac bars and dialed it right in. Like everyone said, try to reposition the bracket prior to welding. But to get it exact, you can always order a set down the road.

Yeah, I’m going to go through it all on my next day off. And will be buying adjustable track bars for sure. I appreciate all the help from you guys!

I installed a rough country rear and front adjustable track bar when I put in my rough country 4” lift

I have the teraflex also. I had to go back to factory mount and adjust track bar. Centered just about perfect.
