I have a 4in suspension lift that i got rid of the tc drop. I installed a tom woods dc shaft and now my track bar hits the tank protector. If i read correctly i will need to replace the factory track bar with an adjustable track bar. I will also need to take off the relocation bracket and replace with a angled track bar bracket to go in its place. Is this the best route to take? Thanks
 
You need an adjustable track bar with a track bar relocation bracket.
 
Install an angled trackbar relocation bracket, that will move the driver's side track bar mount forward and away from the gas tank. Rolling the axle to raise the pinion angle for the CV driveshaft also moved the trackbar mount rearward closer to the gas tank. The angled track bar relocation bracket compensates for that.

Whoever set the rear axle's control arm lengths might have also made them too long moving the axle too close to the gas tank. Most likely the angled track bar relocation bracket will take care of the problem though.
