2010 JKR on unknown lift. Probably a rough country, 5.6-6"
Had bent axles, took it to my trailer guy and he straightened the rear and put offset BJs in front.
The axles are centered, and measure square. Toe reads a **** hair under 1/8.
Castor on a printout reads 4.8 but my digital angle finder reads 5.5-6.5 depending on where I put it.
It still drives like shit above 35mph
When you go to correct to bring back to center it wants to over correct and I end up having to steer back and forth constantly.
I put all my lasers and measures on it today and what I'm seeing is odd shit on the driver's front. And even tho the axles are centered when shooting a laser from toe plates to rear tires they show on two completely different sides of the tires...???
When measuring from toe plates to centerline I get the same on the rear side of axle but on front the drivers is 1/2" short, that makes no sense.
Drivers also shows stub shaft not centered with Lazer vertical through hub???
But two different alignment shops said its in spec.
Has all new bushings front and rear.
New trackbars front and rear
New steering front
Used but good and different from before steering box
New BJs
New hubs
I'll post up pics of all the different crap I measured and try to keep each one on its own reply
