adj. rear track bar questions

I have been trying to find the "right" equipment for a while now. I need more answers.

I have 3" of suspension lift right now, might go as high as 4", but not any time soon (and definitely no higher than 4"). I have dropped the t-case until I can afford an SYE/CV conversion, which won't be anytime soon.

Are their adjustable rear track bars out there that DO NOT require an additional bracket to install (looking for one to bolt right into OEM mounting points)?

would an RE 1620 adj. rear track bar mount into another bracket (such as an OME)?

I have gotten a few quotes on RE's (reasonable pricing), but the additional bracket idea - I don't like. Nor do I like the fact that I have to drill out the stock mounting hole for the front track bar....then I'd pretty much be stuck with RE if I destroy this thing somehow wheelin.

Please give me some advice fellas, I want to make a purchase ASAP so I can get this stuff installed to smooth out my Jeep.

Yes, JKS makes one, 3rd down on the list, for 0-6" of lift.

It says a different bar is needed once going to an SYE over 3", I currently am running a CV driveshaft right at 3" of lift and the standard JKS adjustable track bar listed above works fine. At 4" of lift though the axle rotation for the pinion angle correction for the CV may be to great, which will require a bracket regardless of the brand.
