Would I adjust the front arm's longer or shorter to get to 4.5 caster? Would I be adjusting the top or lower arms? Thanks

I just had a new complete front axle installed under warranty. I have a 5" long arm kit with adjustable control arm's. I need to adjust the front arm's to get around 5 degree caster. Attached is the current alignment after they installed the front axle at the dealer. Do I adjust the upper or...

Yes in the rear.

What to replace my rear sway bar bushings. Stick with oem replacements or poly bushings? Need frame mount and bushings for the stock links.

Not sure. I did not hit anything and there is no damaged to the outside of the mount. I thought it was years of wear and tear and then just came off. But now looking at it the welds are still on the axle. I was driving on a 3 mile graded road going to Black Mountain in Hinkley Hinkley CA and...

Here are some pictures. Does it look like it had bad welds or ? I also included is pictures before it tore off.

My rear trackbar mount ripped/torn off this week. It is a Fabtech weld on mount that went over the oringal. Half of the original mount and the Fabtech gusset is still on the axle. It has been on the Jeep since 2018 and 50k miles. A few months ago I installed a drag link flip kit and tie rod. The...

What should it cost (labor) to have front and rear track bar mounts welded on?

@wayoflife How do you like the KMC Tanks? I am thinking about ordering the all black ones. Are these wheels hub centric? Looking at the 17x9 with -15 backspace to go with my new Toyo Mud 37x12.5x17's.

Why would the toe not be the same from left to right? What adjustments are needed to get the thrust angle correct? Is my toe in 1/16?

What should the thrust angle be?

The dealer said my front axle housing is bent and they are going to warrenty it. They are going to adjust the control arms when they install the new housing. Here is the print out of the alignment measurements. Disregard the before toe settings being so off since they just installed the new...

My Jeep is at the shop having a few repairs done and was going to have my ball joints done and was told they are fine. Below is what the service manager sent me and I am just wondering if these are at the bottom of the tolerances level? (We did not find any play in the U-joints. The lower left...

Does anyone know what max factory tolerances are that Jeep would replace ball joints under warranty?

I appreciate your advice!! Can't believe Fabtech would suggest doing it. The Jeep has always drove great but I just had front axle seals,ball joints,pitman arm, flipped drag link and aluminum 1 ton steering done and the Jeep has 52k miles now so just want to make sure everything is correct. I...

My question is for how my Jeep is set up would be better for them to set it at the factory 4.2 caster or at 5.0 like Fabtech suggested? Would having a little more caster on the passenger side be beneficial? I am having it aligned tomorrow and they are adjusting everything.

I just checked and my rear upper CA are not adjustable. All the other CA are ajustable with 5 Ton joint's. So this long arm kit does not let you adjust the rear pinion angle. I also notice that the rear coils have a bow in them so that would explain why since the axle cant be adjusted? I...

I appreciate your response. I would imagine adjusting the control arms different lengths? Let me know if I am correct....... 1. Front upper CA set caster? 2. Front lower CA move axle? 3. Rear upper Ca move axle? 4. Rear lower set pinion? So I been told 1/16 to 1/8 toe. You say 1/16 so that...
