Jeeeep I don't really know how to measure if axle is centered. My Wrangler is a Sahara and thought levelling kit wouldn't require that level of expertise yet? Hence why I bought it. Still learning, slowly, my apologies. 😅

Disregard what Jeeep wrote. He pretty clearly was talking out of his ass without actually paying attention to your setup.

Now, with respect to whether your axle is centered, I would be shocked if your axle shifted very much at all with just a leveling kit. Part of the reason I had you do the loosen, shake, settle, retorque on the control arms and trackbar was to to make sure those bushings were not bound up.

In any event, measure how much your front tires stick out from the fender on each side. The numbers will probably be a bit off because of the leveling kit (maybe 1/4" tops). Not enough to worry about in my opinion, and certainly not enough to spend the money to buy a new trackbar setup or brackets.

Exactly! Off the top of my head mine only shifted 1/8-1/4" with the EVO level...

well, when my ass speaks it usually gets attention! but yep, i missed the 1st post about them being BDS links and as far as the swaybar, that's why i said "if". I've seen guys put quick disconnects on the rubi swaybar.
anyway, continue on. OP hope you get it squared away :thumb:

Topless day photos. 8 weeks of no rain and in winter where we don't get rain, topless day yesterday was a shamles due to downpours. Carried on raining today but they say it'll clear tomorrow then I can work on the Jeep.

Some great Jeeps in those pics. Love the Scrambler and FC.

(Oh, and you missed the humor in my pic request. You said you were a girl Jeeper and then a few posts later talked about going topless.)
