That's a nice looking truck bluejay. It's my ideal color and I really like the canopy you've got. Nice setup! What size tires and wheels are you running?

thanks for the pictures. I am putting a 2" Mini-spring back on should I get a bracket for the track bar as well.

I would think you would need one, otherwise the front axle will shift off to one side. Though I don't know how much difference 2" will make. But its always funny to drive behind one of those guys with a big lift where you can see that the front and rear wheels don't line up in the same track anymore!

You can also get an adjustable trac bar. For just a leveling kit, I would leave the stock bracket alone and go the adjustable trac bar route.
