I know I will need some JBA new A arms soon, i have that on the list. What about adjustable track bars? Quick Disconnects? What are my options? I know I need some for the rear for the new lift, what about up front? I know Rusty's has an adjustable rear track bar, but what is the best way to go?

Going offroading? a front and belly skid would be my next two updates. Don't need adjustable track bar unless the rear axle is noticeably off-center (varies vehicle to vehicle, mine wasn't that bad but I got one used so I figured why not).

how do you know if your axle is off center?

You look at it :p

If the tire on the driver side is sticking out and the passenger side is tucked under the flare, an adjustable track bar will help. If you walk back and forth and can't tell if one is sticking out more than the other... then you really don't 'need' one.

Pushing the axle to the passenger side a bit will help prevent the driveshaft from rubbing on the gas tank skid as well; becomes more of an issue when you remove the sway bar and put on longer shocks
