Lift Level Kit? Input please.

I have an 02 F-350 7.3L with a 6" Superlift that has tended to sag in the front over the years.
Just researching the lift level kits available, was thinking Pro Comp, but now am considering the kit from BDS. I hear that there is a differential alignment track bar cam bolt that allows the movement/adjustment of the diff from left to right. Apparently when raising the front end with shackles, the diff tends to shift to the left and this feature corrects this?
Has anyone heard of this? Is it something to be concerned with, or is it more of a gimmick? Pro Comp doesn't have it, but the BDS one does, and they charge about a $150 more for it. Thanks for anyone who has either of these, or similar products for responding with their input.

If your using a shackle hanger kit, you shouldn't need to work on the track arm. Or at least Fabtech didn't require adjustable track arms. I suspect you already have something done with the track arm, you might want to crawl under and see if you have a threaded track arm.

I checked this morning. I sure do have the bar with threads, so I guess I should be ok there. Thanks
