Rear trackbar with Adj upper arms and a CV shaft

I'm trying to figure out if I'm going to run into problems with my rear track bar with the addition of adjustable upper control arms to set the pinion angle with a CV shaft. Can I get away with running a regular trackbar bracket or do I have to use the special one for cv shafts? I have the regular trackbar relocation bracket and would rather not buy a new one but want to be prepared before hand if I'm going to run into problems.

What happens if I run a regular bracket with the cv and adj arms? Any in put is appreciated.

I would worry about binding issues and gas tank skid clearance issues.

I am using stock trackbar with stock bracket right now and I was able to adjust my pinion angle enough to eliminate vibes while I save up for the rear adjustable track bar and the correct bracket for SYE setup.

I also have a Rokman gas tank skid and I was able to push it farther to the rear of the Jeep to add some clearance.

To be honest, it depends. If you are not going for full flex, you could be ok for a while. It will be close (within about 3/4"), but it will fit. If you go offroad, you may contact your gas tank with the track bar. If you keep your ear to the ground, you can pick up a track bar and bracket for pretty cheap. In my opinion, the new trackbar and bracket is simply the right way to go.
