My understanding (since I'm no mechanic) is that proper toe can help in keeping the vehicle straight. Many past posters have found their toe to be way off coming out of the factory. When I owned the 2018 the toe was off a bit and the resetting of it seemed to help.The only alignments on a stock JL is total toe and steering center which doesn’t adjust left vs right but total. How would alignment affect pulling on a JL? I’m not doubting it, just curious technically how it would fix pulling.
Castor can be adjusted with adjustable lower control arms and there is also a aftermarket shim kit that allows you to increase castor.
From other peoples replies on this forum it appears that setting the castor to around 6ish. helps keep the tracking in line.
Since having the alignment inspected is such a minor cost, it's not a bad idea to see where it is and help establish a baseline.
