READYLIFT TRACK BAR BRACKET INSTALL HELP

Hey guys, installing a 2.5" readYlIft leveling kit on my 17 platinum tomorrow. The kit I ordered also has the track bar relocation bracket. I have watched a couple videos of the spacer, shock extension, swap bar drop, and brake line bracket install-- I am confident in how all of this needs to be done.

I have not seen a single video on the track bar bracket install. Does anyone have any info they could share?...It may be a dumb question but I am by no means a mechanic, so if anyone can shed some light or tips/tricks to installing that portion it would be much appreciated. 👍🏼👍🏼

The trackbar bracket is simple to install. 6 bolts. The problem is the trackbar end bolt. It requires 406 lb feet of torque. Not many people have the tool to do that. You can install it yourself as tight as you can get it and drive to a shop that can torque it for you.

take my 100lbft vatozone torque wrench, throw a pipe on the end of it that is 3x longer, boom 400lbft of tq...SCIENCE.
