Hi Jay...... rigs looking good. If you got 2.5 āāof lift, your axle is probably shifted to drivers side a 1/2ā . Wonāt hurt anything, and it sounds like thatās not going to bother you anyway. Lol...... I , on the other hand , with my ocd , donāt have that luxury. I had to get an adjustable track bar and straighten my shit up. But I got over 3ā of lift and my axle was shifted a little over 3/4ā . Iām glad youāre enjoying your rig, looks great brother.Russ,
Nope, no trackbar mods or adjustments. just the standard Mopar lift kit and nothing else (at least not yet). I've provided earlier pics from the front attempting to show that my axels do 'appear' to be centered from just looking, but I have not formally measured anything.
Again, I'm not a suspension purest, have absolutely no opinion about this lift vs that lift etc. I'm certain each one has their own pros and cons. The idea is to choose the one that will put the biggest smile on your face. To some that won't happen without the biggest dent in their wallet. Cost (and the very subjective idea of warranty integrity) were certainly primary factors.
From my perspective the Mopar lift was far superior to spacers (for what I wanted) yet adequate to be just good enough. Time will tell.
Maybe I'll need to tweak on other suspension things as I wheel more. Maybe tire wear or other factors will need to be taken into account. I did not want to over-think this. As of right now I feel I have a great baseline and am looking forward to driving Snoopy (the wife named him) every chance I can get. In fact with this setup that journey can literally now be just about anywhere.
Reposting the front views here just for your convenience. Doesn't prove much but it sure looks good.
Jay
