Moving front axle back. My mistake

Dune Crawler said:

Got a lil carried away with installing new control arms and unbolted both of the old ones (new impact gun got me excited) so now the front axle is pushed way to forward. She's sitting on level ground right now. Should I jack the axle up and remove tires to help pull it back?

Sorry a lil exhausted. The axle is pushed up. Here's a pic with the control stock arms on. Haven't gotten to the part of switching them. I have a bottle jack. I think ratchet straps would work also right? Attach it to front bumper? Bull bar or through one of the holes at the bottom? View attachment 93884

First you need to loosen all your control arm bolts and then torque them when the jeep is on it's weight when it's on the ground. You have it wrong in the picture. The control arms should stick straight out like that.
