Trackbar moved to steering stabilizer location

[Skullver]

After doing OTK steering I need to move the trackbar up to make it parallel w/draglink. As you can see the steering stabilizer location would make them perfectly parallel at ride height.

I know there used to be some great writeups about the different methods but I was just hoping that I could make a custom trackbar/shorten existing, that will mount where stabilizer used to go. Is this a dumb idea, has this been discussed? Can someone point me in the right direction? Sorry if this is a common subject but I could not find anything using the search function. The trackbar I currently have won't work due to the strange bends but a slight z-bend trackbar, shortened would. Am I overlooking something? Thanks in advance for your patience,ideas, criticism etc...

you'll need to beef up the stabilizer mount

That, to me, would be easier than making all new bracketry, as my fab tools are limited, does anyone have any pics/more info on this sort of setup? Thanks much.

i was thinking the same thing, but i don't think the SS mount is wide enough for the RE trackbar.

I have a heim joint for the axle side, should be able to fit that and some misalignment spacers in there, after beefing it up slightly, It looks to be about 1/4" smaller in width as the trackbar mount.
