Track bar with 2" level?

[Ramman2500]

Hey guys, I'm putting a bilstein 2" level in my 2015 2500, springs and remote resivore shocks.
My question is can I use track bar drop brkts instead of complete adj track bars?
Looking to save a few bucks as front and rear track bars are 600 bucks.

I did the 2.3" Bilstein on my Diesel and while I used the Power Wagon track bar (it's slightly longer about 1/8"), for 2" you can get away with staying with the stock one. I doubt they even make a drop bracket that would work for a 2" level. The difference in track bar length at that height is very very small (like 1/8-1/4").

If you're OCD like me, and they make a track bar drop bracket that levels out your track bar so it's level, then I would go for it personally.

Realistically if you're leveling the front you don't need to touch your rear trackbar. Only the front.
Can you get a bracket for the front TB?, sure, do you want one ? Don't know how the factory front TB is in the 2500's and how HD it is.Typically when you drop the TB you also have to do something with the draglink, i guess of some sort of pitman drop.. Both bars have a geometry in check and when you mess with it you can induce woobles in your steering. Do it right and get a more HD adjustable trackbar to start, the bar should be more than ok for a 2" front lift

So after some looking the smallest TB drop brkts I could find is for 3"+ lifts.
So I will probably get and adjustable bar.
I got longer sway bar end links coming for the front & rear
I am going to be lifting the rear 1" as well. I tow alot and don't want the front nose high when towing.
Thanks for the links!

You do not need a track bar or relocation bracket with the billstein kit. They shave it to 2.3” for that reason you need it when you go 2.5” or above. I’ve done a lot of those kits it’s a great kit for the 2500’s

Power wagon trac bar maybe?

Thuren used to recommend to replace the factory TB at 20k. And that was on the pw which more like have a more heavy duty TB.

The power wagon track bar would be a good option if you can find a good used one cheap somewhere. They are a bit longer than a normal 2500 bar...believe its 1/8 inch but dont quote me.

Also, careful with the adjustable ones. Dont make them much longer than stock. From what I have read the PW bar is the max length with stock bumpstops, otherwise you will start getting rubbing/contact at full compression of the suspension. Dont quote me, but the number “39 1/8” rings a bell as the max length.

PW track bar is not more heavy duty then any other 2500, the only difference is it's about 1/8" longer because the power wagon has a slight lift from the factory over the standard 2500. Other then the length it is identical in design and materials

You said 3/16 in 2018 in ******* forums since we're counting fractions haha.
In any case the PW wagon should work for a 2" lift. I'll still get a Thuren or Synergy or Carli to center my axel and call it day. No harm and actually more strenght than stock. not a bad thing to have on a front live axle that it'll be lifted even 2". I don't skimp on the basics.

This was Don from Thuren, from the same thread where you posted the PW TB lenght
