Take a look a the angle of your track bar and the drag link coming off your pitman arm. Those two should be parallel. If not, you want to get a bracket other wise it will cause a slight binding through the suspension cycle.
It won't be anything major and maybe not even anything you'll notice. The other reason is, the more angle that the those two components have, the more it increases your turning radius and also gives more side to side movement of your axle.

I don't think it is absolutely necessary, but a good idea. I put 2" coil spacers on my 06 with snow plow prep springs (basically a 3.5" lift) and everything worked fine, but the axle is shifted slightly to the driver's side, maybe 1/2" to 1".
