Shorten passenger arm 1 turn (IF my memory serves me correctly). But wait a day or so before you do. And drive it. The veering sensation may go away..

Re: alignments, I got lifetime alignment from Firestone. I had it on my last jeep and got my money's worth. The down side is that it's hit or miss if I get a guy who knows what he's doing. When I did it last month for the first time at the Firestone in Huntington on jericho, the guy knew what he was doing.

That does sound like a good deal especially if there is about 80% tread left. Those tires new would cost probably double that. And just keep in mind you will need to buy wheel spacers to keep running the stock wheels

You need spidertrax 1.5 inch spacers with a 5x5 bolt pattern. They are about $100 a pair

hey can i have the 35in mud grapplers on my JK , i love the tires , but they are very noisy , i mean very noisy , they are also very heavy so you will feel the weight in your steering , on a better note ive got about 15000 miles on mine and they are only about 1/4 way worn so you can accually get some reasonable miles out of them , im guessing 35000 or so ... other then the noise they handle rain/ snow very well , and their awsome off road, very good price for them
