How much does a 2" lift shift the axles?

[TJEli]

Has anyone actually measured how far the axles shift with 2"s of lift?

Yes.... the Mopar 2" lift shifts the axels 0.5". Front shift to drivers side. Rear shifts to passenger side. There is also an angle change of 1.6 degrees.

Thank you very much. This is the exact info I was looking for.

My mopar lift shifted the axles closer to an inch, front to the driver’s side, and the rear the passengers.

I initially had a 1" offset. I had to take it back and they loosened it up and pushed it around a bit and got a 1/2" back. Didn't correct the thrust angle change though which is my biggest issue. The damn thing crab crawls down the road.

Adjustable control arms, or longer ones, could be used to re-position it..

I think the OP is referring to left to right shift. Adjustable track bars would be needed to correct that.

I guess all of these Jeeps are different, my axles Only shifted a quarter inch front and rear on my Rubicon with a Moar 2 inch lift.

I don't know how much mine shifted, but the tires look like they are perfectly aligned with the fenders on both sides with the Mopar lift. I didn't look that closely before the lift. It doesn't even slightly dog-leg down the road, either.
