This is after 2" spacer front and rear with TeraFlex Sport front LCAs.

Jeep Wrangler JL Rate My Alignment mm9IK3J


Wish I would have thought to have it checked before the lift went on.

Those caster numbers look suspect. I would think that is wrong. Probably closer to 6 or less. I hate to say it but a lot of alignment shops do not have good techs working for them. Unless you have adjustable control arms, they are just setting toe. They still charge full price though.
How does the jeep ride?

The Teraflex Sport lower arms are fixed, any idea what their length is? Those caster numbers are very high.
Also your steering wheel is either off center, or was off center when these measurements were taken.

Slight pull to the right, but it's had that since the STT Pros went on. May have gotten worse with the lift, but it could also be placebo effect.

24-5/8" according to TeraFlex. How can you tell the steering wheel is off by the numbers there?

Total toe is in spec but both sides are out of spec.

So if I'm reading the numbers correctly, the wheels are pointing too far to the left and I need to adjust the drag link to be slightly longer to pull both of them back to the right?

How does it drive? That’s the best analysis to go by.

Steering wheel is centered but when driving I suppose a slight pull to the right. Which is the opposite of what I pictured in my head with positive toe on the right and negative on the left.
