Correct track bar length??

Ready to install my suspension. Installing Carli new springs (2010-up) which are giving a true 3+". I have a mega cab and it sounds like most people are getting 3.25" of lift with these springs. Question about the correct track bar length. Which is it? I have seen both 39 1/8 and 39 1/4 posted. Carli has 39 1/4 on their instructions, but I think their instructions have not been updated for these new springs
advise?

thanks

Regardless of how much lift you have/get, 39.25 is the max that you can go without causing alot of contact between your drivers coil bucket and the factory trackbar bracket.

39 1/8th looks great on mine with 2in Daystar leveling kit. Thuren gave me the measurement.

I called Carli and they said 39 1/8th is preferred. 39 1/4" centers the axle perfectly, but can contact the coil bucket. they said the 1/8th inch does make a difference
