Any advice for trac bar install?
So I got the new track bar from Sonoran Steel and am going to install tomorrow. Any advice? You know, the kinds of things I wouldn't think "in the moment"

Adding the bracket to it I'm sure is relatively the same as switching out with their modified one, maybe a couple extra washers laying around in case, but should go pretty well, hipefully more people can elaborate

This is a super easy thing to do. I did mine at the same time as the lift with the wheel/tires off which made it a lot easier. Really only 2 bolts to come out to remove old one. THen I put the new bar in starting at the mount to the frame and then the one to the rear axle mount. The new track bar relocates the axle back to it's proper centered position so you may have to move the axle side ways a bit the get the second bolt to line up. If you raise the rear of the Runner up and put it on jack stands then put a floor jackunder the rear differencial it helps allow the axle to be located wherever you need it to be to get the second bolt in.

Just an update. The install was a breeze and I got my core refund check promptly. This is an easy modification that makes the 4Runner drive normal again. I highly recommend it.
