You can see the bracket with the stock SS here: http://www.jeepswag.com/#Jeep_JK_Steering_Stabilizer_Relocation_KitMOAB4ME- My prob (condensed) was : using (co A) lift that inclwelded) f&r dropped trackbar brackets, histeer draglink, & adj trackbar ALONG W/ (co B) relocated bracket & oversize stabilizer. When it all went together...the (co B) relocated bracket caused the (co A) trackbar to be @ different angle than (co A) highsteer draglink...as well as possible clearence issues (@ full droop left/ right- not sure thou). Eventually i'll get a Woods (or co A) bracket w aftmkt stabilizer, but ULTIMATELY could not bring myself to cutoff (welded) front & rear tb brackets & buy new ( co B) brackets. I may have totally overlooked something throughout the process but i dont think so. I don't mind being an idiot w/ a dwindling JK account...but i HATE bein the guinnea pig w/ all the xtra parts. Iwould love to see pics of the Woods/ Tera set-up.
I figured you had an issue like that! I was posting more for those who have a closer to stock set-up. What I have now by just adding the Woods kit for about $30 and no fabrication accomplishes similar result. :beer:MOAB4ME- My prob (condensed) was : using (co A) lift that inclwelded) f&r dropped trackbar brackets, histeer draglink, & adj trackbar ALONG W/ (co B) relocated bracket & oversize stabilizer.

No I hadn't. Here is one picture I have taken. I have a better showing the tie rod end, just haven't uploaded it yet.I will relocate eventually..just wanted an excuse to weld..and show off my creativity i guess...Also, I didnt know if MOAB4ME had seen the other post about my RE/Poly dilemma.
The Woods relocation is a great way to go because it gets it out of the way and it doesn't add anymore weight to the jeep. Not that you're adding very much but it all adds up. I'm so glad I had it when I ran John Bull last weekend. Not sure if it would still be there if I hadn't moved it.You can see the bracket with the stock SS here: http://www.jeepswag.com/#Jeep_JK_Steering_Stabilizer_Relocation_Kit
