Might try listing the offending Jeep dealer by name, I doubt they really want needless negative publicity. It is NOT Jeep saying no...

listen i know it sounds crazy but like someone said above i have heard of two or three different jeeps with 35/12.50/17 Open Country MT's that pulled to the right , one guy lowered the tire pressure to like 30# and it was way better. this one was a brand new 150 mile Jeep. this is the only tire i have ever heard this happening.

have you tried marysville? The guys there have been helpful, but I haven’t been since my lift. I’ll find out soon.

Nope. Marysville is 60 miles away.

Okay! So now les schwab (tire shop) wants to do an alignment out of spec, this doesn’t seem normal. I can get a set of KO2 right now and I think this is the route to go. Any advice??

Did you ever do a search on the Toyo MT common issue of a right pull? I promise it is the tire.
However going from a Toyo MT to. KO2 is going to fix the pull but completely different tires for different needs. If you want something that won’t pull right and looks like a Toyo MT pick a nitto trail grappler or ridge grappler. Not a KO2.

I use Nitto Trail grapplers they are the sister company to Toyo , they wear well and straight as an arrow

FWIW, my Jeep with a Mopar lift and 35s also pulls to the right.

I was just at the dealership finding out if they are willing to the steering box TSB.

They read to me FCA’s criteria for approving the TSB. FCA will approve the work as long as the vehicle has:
  1. A Mopar lift that has been professionally installed
  2. A comparable aftermarket lift that has been professionally installed
  3. Alignment is within accepted factory spec
IMO, getting Les Schwab to do an alignment that is out of spec is opening a can of worms. I’d just get the KO2s and be done.
