Default Chicagoland alignment shop

Can anybody recommend an alignment shop that can handle 35" tires? I stopped into a place in Elmhurst and they said their rack couldn't handle the Jeep.

I did the driveway-tape measure alignment a couple times after my 2.5" lift but it still wanders on the highway above like 60mph...kinda sick of it

And yes I have front and rear adjustable track bars and LCAs

Call Attitude in Des Plaines 847-593-0505. The do a lot lifts so I bet they have a shop that they use for the larger tires.

Also a trick you might be able to do is put the stock tires on and then get it done.

I went to national tire and battery (NTB) and they seemed to do a decent job- the jeep tracks straight. they warranty the alignment and had no problem with the 35s.

Also- mine tracked straighter after I disconnected the trackbar on its own weight and adjusted it accordingly. Best of luck.
